Description

This deciduous shrub has beautiful blooms in the summer. It can reach 3'-4' tall and has a rounded form. This shrub prefers shade although a bit of sun will allow for more blooms. The flowers change color depending on acidity of soil. Hydrangea needs moist, fertile soil. This is a delightful addition to any semi-shady corner of the garden.

Water Saving Tip:

Give your sprinkler system a checkup when turning it on in the spring and occasionally during the summer.

Trim branches that are obstructing spray patterns and raise sprinklers that are too low for spray to clear the grass.
