Flower panicles are shaped like the frosty swirl atop an ice cream cone. Flowers contain both fertile and sterile florets. One of the most winter hardy of the hydrangeas. Blooms on new wood. Flower color is unaffected by soil chemistry. ‘Little Lamb’ is so named for the delicate flower heads that look like dancing lambs floating above the dark green foliage. Its flower petals are the smallest and most delicate of any hydrangea. Pure white blooms may turn pink with age. Height: 4-6 ft. Spread: 4-6 ft.
