Flowering reliably from early to late summer, this striking hydrangea adds a bold splash of colour to borders, cottage gardens, and containers. It thrives in part-shade with moist, well-drained soil and performs well throughout New Zealand. ‘Leuchtfeuer’ is perfect for gardeners seeking strong colour impact and classic form in an easy-care shrub.
