Notes: Eclipse is the first true dark-leaf Hydrangea macrophylla on the market. Its intense, dark purple foliage holds its color, even in warm climates. The striking foliage, paired with gorgeous amethyst or cranberry-colored blooms, will make a big impact at retail, in the garden, and in a decorative container. Eclipse is a grower-friendly plant that offers excellent mildew and Cercospora resistance, holds up well in a garden center, and is a standout in the landscape.
