Hydrangea Hydrangeas are
diverse shrubs noted for large flowers clusters, which may be mounded,
globular, flat, or spiked. Each flower head has both sterile and fertile
florets. The sterile flowers are the showy ones. They are one to one and
one half inches in diameter and can be white, pink, purple, or blue,
depending on both the variety of hydrangea and the acidity of the soil. In
2008 we have selected two late season hardy varieties to compliment two
mophead flowering varieties and quite frankly we're excited about all of
the choices. Back to Trees & Shrub Page or Close Page to Return to Lawn & Garden Home Page Click on Image to Enlarge |

Common Name: Endless Summer
TM
'Hydrangea' Scientific Name : Hydrangea macrophylla 'Bailmer' Here's a plant to shout about from the highest mountaintop! 'Endless Summer'TM has revolutionized the macrophylla Hydreagea market because, unlike all of the others, it blooms reliably on new wood. That means glorious, beefy blue, pom-pom flowers every early-July and lasting late into the summer even if last year's branches are winter damaged right down to the ground. Now people in some of the coldest spots in Maine can grow this summer charmer instead of just dreaming about it. Deep green foliage serves a perfect backdrop to 4-6' diameter flowers that get even bluer in more acid soils. If you have room for only one Hydrangea, pick 'Endless Summer'TM. Matures 5-6' tall x 5-6' wide. Hardy to Zone 4. |

'Penny Mac' is very bud hardy and a very reliable bloomer in Zone 5 and its outstanding, compact habit make it easy to use singularly or in groups.

Common Name: Annabelle
