This deciduous shrub is a compact, mounding beauty with a tidy habit and a stunning display of large, mophead blooms that emerge in soft pink tones. Ideal for Zones 4–9, it thrives in well-drained, rich, slightly acidic soils and performs best in partial shade to full sun with consistent moisture. Its fall color transitions to rich green foliage tinged with warm hues before dormancy. Standing at a mature height of 3–4 feet with a similar spread, it’s perfect for small gardens, borders, or containers. It attracts pollinators and is moderately deer-resistant, offering year-round interest. Its sturdy stems ensure long-lasting flowers, making it an excellent choice for cut arrangements.
