Plant of the Month – Blushing Bride Hydrangea

Tuesday, September 15th, 2009

Some people tend to shy away from hydrangeas because they have been disappointed in their blooming habits. They have found the older varieties usually only set blooms once per year. However this pest free hydrangea will provide graceful white blooms on both new and old wood from May through September.  They also require little maintenance.  Simply mulch them in the winter and refrain from cutting them back (remember they bloom on new and old wood).  Massed or as single specimens they are a welcome addition to any landscape.
