With its gorgeous dark green and bronze foliage and impressive crimson, purple and white lacecap blooms, 'Dark Angel Purple' is a true stunner of a hydrangea. Lacecap hydrangeas get their name from the shape and form of their flowers, which comprise an outer ring of showy, sterile florets and an inner cluster of smaller, fertile florets. Relatively compact in nature, this variety will grow nicely in a large container on a patio. It will also make an excellent addition to a shrub border. Part of the lovely 'Black Diamonds' hydrangea series, this plant is revered for its striking foliage, whose dark green shades look give it a dramatic, almost-black look. The blooms make for splendid cut flowers, looking especially striking alongside fern fronds or eucalyptus leaves. Get snipping!
