Hello

Any ideas on this please? Paniculata? Mophead?

Plant ID app seems to be struggling.

Thanks

It looks like a mophead or lacecap to me - afaik their leaves aren’t significantly different.

I'd say mophead.

Thanks. Hopefully it flowers this year and I can find out!

It looks pretty healthy so it should.Smile

They are both from the same species of plant - Hydrangea microphylla - so although the flowers look different, the leaves look the same.

Definitely Hydrangea macrophylla

Thanks, I appreciate it!

Hope it flowers blue rather than pink! I note from the internet that the soil will determine that!
