Bi-colored Mophead Hydrangea
Hydrangea macrophylla
‘Tivoli’
(hy-DRAIN-juh)
This interesting new cultivar
of Hydrangea was spotted at a local grower when we were looking for some
Pansies. Not quite in full bloom I did like the combination of the lime green
and pink in the flowers. There isn’t a lot of information out for this plant
yet but it is said to be a compact version of the parent. In general I find
bi-colored flowers to be lovely and exotic and these one was no exception.
There is also a dark blue and white type in the series named ‘Bavaria’.
The Pansies looked pretty
picked over so we didn’t get any. It was easy to be distracted by all of the
other spring stuff that they were selling. Our overnight temperatures are still
a little low to put anything out but the hardiest flowers. It would be easy to
be fooled by the daytime highs, which for us have been way over normal.
