Hydrangea lovers, get ready—because the Fusion line is shaking things up in the world of ornamental plants! Imagine the classic charm of a Hydrangea but with a twist: it’s grown on a stem, turning this familiar favorite into a premium, eye-catching plant that stands tall and proud. Whether you’re strolling past a retail display or sprucing up a patio, this ‘Hydrangea on a stick’ instantly steals the spotlight with its unique, elevated form.

Compact Enough to Ship Efficiently but Impressive Enough to Earn Those Second Glances

Growers and breeders will appreciate that the Fusion line fits neatly into a 21-cm pot, making production planning refreshingly straightforward.

This standardized sizing keeps things simple while still presenting a substantial, upscale look on the shelf. It’s compact enough to ship efficiently but impressive enough to earn those second glances from curious customers.

But the real fun begins with the color evolution. These blooms aren’t content to stay the same shade day after day—they shift tones as they mature, offering a dynamic palette of hues in every flower head. For retailers, that means displays that look fresh and exciting week after week. For consumers, it’s like having a slow-motion fireworks show right in their living room or garden.

Works as a Stylish Pot Plant and Also Transitions Beautifully Into a Cut Flower

Of course, a good show shouldn’t end quickly. Fortunately, the Fusion line delivers with an extended five-month flowering period. That’s practically the marathon athlete of Hydrangeas. Whether positioned as a long-lasting gift, a premium décor piece, or a garden investment, this trait adds massive value and plenty of marketing sparkle.

Perhaps the biggest win is its multi-market versatility. PerlaNova’s concept works as a stylish pot plant, transitions beautifully into the cut-flower world as a vase-worthy stem, and then keeps on giving when planted outdoors, where it can continue growing with multiple new buds.

For growers, that means one product touching three different markets—and for consumers, it means a plant that just refuses to be anything but fabulous.

FAQ

What makes the Fusion line different from a regular Hydrangea?

The Fusion line is a 'Hydrangea on a stick' – grown on a stem to create an elevated, tree-like form that stands out from traditional bushy Hydrangeas. This premium presentation makes it a natural attention-grabber in retail displays and home settings alike.

How long does the Fusion Hydrangea bloom?

The Fusion line boasts an impressive five-month flowering period, making it one of the longest-blooming Hydrangeas available. This extended season adds significant value whether it's purchased as a gift, a home décor piece, or a garden investment.

Can the Fusion Hydrangea be used in more than one way?

Yes. The Fusion line is designed for three markets: it works as a decorative pot plant, can be used as a cut stem in a vase, and can be planted outdoors after its indoor display, where it will continue growing and producing new buds.
