First Editions® Tickled Pink™ Hydrangea 
Full, frilly blooms put a smile on your face
St. Paul, Minn. (Spring 2010) – Gardeners looking for a more compact hydrangea paniculata will be thrilled with First Editions® Tickled Pink™. This playful hydrangea will reach a height of just 4- to 5-feet, and its unique blooms and strong stems make it a standout in any garden space.
Tickled Pink's cone-shaped blossoms start out a soft white then gradually turn a rosy pink. The 
extraordinary blooms are loaded with petals that curve, giving Tickled Pink a lacy, flirty look.
Bred by Dr. Michael Dirr at the University of Georgia, Tickled Pink stays more upright and compact than its parent 'Pink Diamond.' Its smaller size means just about any garden can make room for Tickled Pink. It's perfect as a stand-alone plant, as a flower garden backdrop or paired together in a border. The unique blooms also add a delightful look to fresh or dried flower arrangements.
