Sundae Fraise, the paniculata hydrangea.

The new kid on the block, paniculata hydrangea are becoming hugely popular in Australia. These hydrangeas come from parts of Asia, including China, Japan, Korea and parts of Russia. Since they arrived into Europe in the late 1800’s they have been subject to much breeding and selection, creating a very sophisticated bloom.

We grow Paniculata ‘Sundae Fraise’ and ‘Candlelight’, the flowers are large and conical, beginning as creamy white flowers and as they age, they gently change to shades of pale and deeper pink. Their large generous heads create a big impact and so are wonderful for events, when white they are especially popular for weddings. The flowers become hardier and longer lasting as they age and eventually will dry and retain their colour if cared for in the vase.

We sell our hydrangeas at Farm Gate Market in March and April and wholesale from January to April or from our farm in season.
