Hydrangea macrophylla 'Miss Saori'

Common Name: Hydrangea ‘Miss Saori’

Description:
Hydrangea macrophylla ‘Miss Saori’ is a stunning, award-winning deciduous shrub admired for its unique, double-layered, bi-coloured blooms. Each petal features a delicate white centre with a rich pink margin, creating a striking, lace-like effect. Blooming from late spring through autumn, this compact hydrangea offers long-lasting colour and exceptional beauty in garden beds, borders, and containers. Its deep green foliage takes on burgundy hues in cooler months, adding further seasonal interest. Thriving in Melbourne’s climate, ‘Miss Saori’ prefers well-drained, humus-rich soil with regular watering, particularly during dry periods. Unlike many hydrangeas, its flower colour remains stable regardless of soil pH. Light pruning after flowering helps maintain a compact, bushy shape.
