DIAMOND ROUGE hydrangea takes its name from the colors of the flowers which appear in July as white and then change to pink and then burgundy red.

DIAMOND ROUGE is a compact hydrangea growing to only five feet tall and about four feet wide making it suitable for compact gardens.The flowers change color throughout the summer reaching a dark red in later summer as the evenings are cooling. Like most hydrangeas this plant will appreciate shelter from hot afternoon sun and drying winds and requires well-drained but consistently moist soil. Prune back in late winter as this plant flowers on new growth.
