Puffer Fish® is a compact, mounded panicle-type hydrangea that dazzles with abundant large, fluffy white flower panicles that nearly hide the foliage. As summer advances the blooms gradually age to a soft lime-green, adding seasonal interest and a dynamic display. The shrub features a tidy, upright habit with strong stems capable of supporting the heavy blooms — making it excellent for borders, mixed beds, containers or as a specimen. Easy-care and hardy, Puffer Fish® blooms reliably on new wood and holds its shape even in cooler climates, making it a versatile choice for many landscape settings.
