Game Changer® Pink - Hydrangea x

Game Changer® Pink is a lacecap hydrangea selection named ‘HMOPI02-0’; its pink sterile florets surround light-pink fertile flowers. The breeder places it in the Game Changer® series, described as flowering from spring through frost, for a long season of color in garden beds and containers ([Green Fuse catalog](https://green-fuse.com/new/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/GreenFuse-Catalog-2025-26-singles.pdf); [plant patent publication](https://patents.google.com/patent/US20230046496A1/en)). Green Fuse lists the series for USDA Zone 5 and gives a garden height of 24–30 inches. These are series-level specifications rather than a separately stated mature measurement for this individual selection. Its culture guide says the series does not require chilling hours or daylength extension to flower. The patent publication records the selection denomination and describes the pink-and-light-pink lacecap. Use it where a compact flowering shrub suits a mixed border or large container, while allowing local conditions to determine its performance. ## Maintenance Use current breeder or nursery guidance for irrigation, winter exposure, and pruning; the sources linked here do not provide a selection-specific pruning schedule. The culture guide’s note about chilling and daylength describes flowering response, not garden watering needs.
