<i>Hydrangea macrophylla</i> ‘Ragra’ | Cityline Rio Hydrangea
DESCRIPTION
Hydrangea macrophylla 'Ragra', commonly known as the Cityline Rio Hydrangea, is a deciduous shrub celebrated for its large, mophead flower clusters that bloom repeatedly from late spring through fall. The flowers can vary in color from vivid pink to deep blue, depending on the soil's pH, and may also display rich purples and red tones. The blossoms are supported by strong, dark red stems, which contrast beautifully with the lush, dark green foliage that turns a deep burgundy in the fall. Cityline Rio Hydrangea is prized for its extended blooming season, hardy nature, and its ability to bring vibrant, season-long color to gardens, borders, and containers.
