Hydrangea paniculata 'Spring Sizzle' - First Editions® Spring Sizzle® Hydrangea - Shipped
Spring Sizzle Hydrangea is a compact deciduous shrub with a dense mounding habit and strong stems that do not flop.

While can tolerate full sun, its best blooms are in part sun and rich, moist well-drained acidic soils.
