I love it ,so full of blooms and they turn a lovely pink later in the summer, the photo I posted was July. It is about 3 yrs old.
I would recommend this plant. I does seem to be wider than tall , but I won't quibble as I have had difficulty with other hydrangeas not blooming. Not so my favorite , Little Lamb.

I have two bushes that I got two years ago. They have gone through two winters, one in the ground and one in a huge (24" diameter and 24...Read More" deep) pot. The one in the ground has done better and the flowers are a very delicate white with pink centers. Little Lamb is a great name. I had the Annabelle hydrangea and all three died. Plus the flower heads were big and floppy and collapsed. Little Lamb is tidy, upright, and beautiful.

Hmmm.... looks awfully nice in the dappled shade backed by the huge fir - but also looks great in the perennial bed. Uh oh, need another. Could use a bright spot in the front foundation planting, too. Uh oh.

A small introduction by Robert and Jelena de Belder of Arboretum Kalmthout, Belgium in 1995. This shrub grows 6 to 8' high and produces small flowers, the sepals largely covering the fertile flowers . The name is derived from the "appearance of little lambs" contrasting with the foliage. This cultivar is a seedling of 'Pink Diamond'.
AKA 'Lammetje' and 'Klein Schaapje'. This plant is licensed by Springfield Nurseries, Michigan.
A tidy plant once mature and trimmed into a decent shape. Due to its semi-dwarf nature, it better-serves in corners of beds than as a centerpiece.
