Hydrangea Crowned Shrub Madness Winner
Proven Winners ColorChoice has crowned ‘Wee Bit Grumpy’ bigleaf hydrangea as the 2020 Shrub Madness winner.
Based on the NCAA basketball playoffs, the contest is populated with a wide variety of Proven Winners ColorChoice shrubs, which compete throughout the month of March for the chance to be crowned National Champion.
Beginning with a field of 64 contenders, the competition narrows to the Floral Four, then the final two after multiple rounds of voting.
‘Wee Bit Grumpy’ bigleaf hydrangea shows off its hot pink, magenta, or moody violet flowers (depending on soil pH). These fully saturated mophead blooms are packed onto a tight, compact habit. Easy for tucking into the front of your border to deliver summerlong color with its reblooming nature! The shrub enjoys full sun to part shade. In warmer zones, 8 and above, it will benefit placement from afternoon shade.
