Hydrangea macrophylla 'Ayesha' 6L

The large mophead blooms begin to open cream-white then shift to a pale, sky blue to light pink, depending on how acidic the soil. The individual florets have unusual cup shaped petal-like sepals reminiscent of old fashioned lilac flowers. The flower heads open over a long period of time giving a soft two-toned coloring of cream and blue, or pink. It is one of the only hydrangeas to have a delicate light fragrance in bloom.
