Puffer Fish Hydrangea carries densely packed flower heads that create the full, puffed look behind its memorable name. A well-placed Puffer Fish Hydrangea can make a border feel intentional without making it feel formal. With Puffer Fish Hydrangea, remove weak and crossing stems so the main branches can carry the flower heads cleanly.
