Flare Hydrangea gives gardeners the long-lasting color of a panicle hydrangea in a size that works almost anywhere. This compact Hydrangea paniculata ‘Kolmavesu’ grows about 2–3' tall and wide, making it a natural fit for small gardens, foundation beds, border fronts and large containers.

Fit hydrangea color into small spaces

Many panicle hydrangeas need room to spread, but Flare keeps its show in a tidy, upright mound. Its compact habit lets you add hydrangea blooms near walkways, patios and entry beds without planning for a large shrub. The sturdy stems hold the flower panicles above the foliage, so the display stays easy to see and enjoy.

Enjoy months of changing color

Flare opens in early summer with dense white, cone-shaped flower panicles. As the season moves along, the flowers blush pink, then deepen to bright red and red-magenta tones in late summer and fall. That changing color gives you a longer season of interest from one small shrub, which is especially valuable where every planting spot matters.

Cut flowers for fresh or dried arrangements

The upright panicles are well suited for cutting, so you can bring the color indoors. They can also be dried for arrangements, adding extra value after the garden display. Because the fruits are dry and inconspicuous, Flare can be planted near patios, paths and seating areas without creating noticeable litter.

Grow it with simple care

Flare blooms on new wood, so flower buds are not carried through winter the same way they are on some hydrangeas. A light prune in late winter helps maintain shape and encourages fresh blooming growth. Plant it in full sun to part shade with reasonably moist, well-drained soil. It tolerates a wide pH range, and its flower color is not managed by soil pH the way bigleaf hydrangea color can be.
