Phantom Hydrangea
Harcourt Apple

Phantom Hydrangea is a striking deciduous shrub with impressive blooms. It is multi-stemmed and produces pale green flowers that fade to white and soft pink as they mature. These flower clusters can reach up to 15” (40cm) long and while other shrubs will droop from the flowers' weight, Phantom Hydrangea has sturdy stems that support them.

This adaptable shrub will make a beautiful addition to your yard as a flowering hedge or as an ornamental plant on its own. Try pruning the flowers after they are spent to get even larger flower heads.

Harcourt Apple is a cold-hardy variety developed by the University of Alberta. In spring, it produces fragrant white blossoms shaded with pink. The medium-sized apples mature from late summer into fall, featuring red-striped skin with greenish-yellow highlights. The fruit is crisp and juicy, with a mild, pleasant flavour. They are well-suited for fresh eating, baking, and preserves.

For fruit production, cross-pollination is required. Apples need to be planted with another Apple or Crab Apple variety.

Note: We do not ship grafted apples to BC due to regulatory restrictions from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency.
