We wanted a hydrangea with improved bud and stem hardiness in addition to the ability to flower on new wood. This plant delivers on both accounts. Its attractive, reddish-pink lacecap flowers create a mass of color in early summer, and it continues to produce new flowers right up until frost. The semi-double to double florets begin with creamy coloration in the center before maturing to an intense pink. Flowers may shift to blue in acidic soils. If your reblooming H. macrophyllas have been inconsistent performers, try Tuff Stuff. It's the reblooming hydrangea that really does. This new variety will be available in better garden centers Spring 2013.
