'Little Lamb'Hardy HydrangeaHydrangeapaniculata
Buy Online
A sweet compact hardy Hydrangea from Belgium. Little Lamb is unique because its flower petals are the smallest and most delicate of any Hydrangea. These little flowers are held in tight, but delicate flower heads that look like dancing lambs floating above this compact shrub. This special shrub blooms in mid-summer and lasts into autumn. The pure white blooms light up a garden and blend wonderfully with all other colors. Flowers may turn pink in the fall. Use Little Lamb in bouquets either fresh or dried to make a unique floral design. This is an easy to grow plant with reliable flowering and flower color regardless of soil pH. The blooms are well distributed making a very nice plant and display.
Consumer Comment:
I have been an avid gardener for most of my life. I like tough hardy plants that can thrive without much fussing. Our first Little Lamb was planted just last fall (’06), and our giant schnauzer puppy, Boo, ate it right back to the ground in late spring of ’07. I was amazed that with no special care given to it, it grew right back with gangbusters and now only a few months after being eaten, it looks fantastic! Too bad all plants cannot take that kind of beating.

Features
• Dried Flower
• Drought Tolerant *
• Fall Interest
• Landscape Plant
*Even drought tolerant annual and perennial plants will need water for the first few weeks while they get established. Shrubs and trees will need to be watered for the first year after they are planted. After this, little or no supplemental water will be necessary when planted in the ground. No plant is truly drought tolerant in a container; water is necessary for all plants in containers.
