Hydrangea 'Hörnli' was introduced by Federal Research Institute for Horticulture, Wadenswil, Switzerland in 1952. The books tell us that this will be bright crimson and indeed the flowers are rich rose when they mature. The wonder of this shrub is its dwarf nature and compact mopheads that are 4-5 inches across. The fertile flowers are visible within the mopheads giving them a fuzzy look. This is a late bloomer.
Late summer. 20 in.
Crimson flowers
