Fire Island® Hydrangea 2G

Fiery Red Blooms with Compact, Summer-Long Color

Introducing the Fire Island® Hydrangea, a compact bigleaf hydrangea celebrated for its intense red flower color and manageable size. Blooming in summer, rounded mophead flowers emerge bright red in acidic soils (shifting toward pink in more neutral conditions), creating bold, eye-catching color in the landscape. Dark green foliage provides a rich backdrop, while the neat habit makes it perfect for borders, foundations, and containers. Grown in a 2-gallon pot, it offers a healthy, landscape-ready start.
