A sweet treat for the garden! Vanilla Strawberry panicle hydrangea has big. cone-shaped blooms of white and pink. True to its name. the vivid strawberry-pink color develops as the blooms age. and starts at the bottom. for a shaded look. We recommend growing Vanilla Strawberry with at least some sunshine each day to improve its stem strength. A very nice addition to a flower garden!
