MOPHEAD. The unique dark purple or black branches on this plant stand out elegantly from the light green leaf color. This late season mophead opens cream colored and matures to pink-lilac.

The light pink or blue mop-head flowers are nice and the light green foliage agreeable, but what grabs your attention is the black stems.
