This medium sized plant was introduced in 1927 by Henri Cayeux of France. Hydrangea experts say this introduction changed the hydrangea world forever! It was the first bred hydrangea that had intense colors, strong sturdy leaves on a small statured plant. Merveille was wildly successful between World War 1 and World War 2 but is actually lesser known and less available than its most famous sport, Merveille Sanguine, one of our favorite dark pigmented hydrangeas that we call Brunette. Don't miss this special plant and collector's item.
