Plant of the Week: Hydrangea Pistachio

“Hydrangea ‘Pistachio’ is one of the most colorful Hydrangeas you’ll ever see, and once you set your eyes on one, you won’t be able to resist it. Imagine huge, 5-inch mophead blooms with red, blue, scarlet and green within each flower. Add to this that ‘Pistachio’ blooms on new and old wood on a compact 3-foot tall plant, and you’ve got yourself a ‘must have’ plant!” – Ciscoe Morris
