Endless Summer® Dreamcloud® Hydrangea — Hydrangea macrophylla
Endless Summer® Dreamcloud® Hydrangea (Hydrangea macrophylla 'Bailmaceight') delivers a truly spectacular floral display with its uniquely fluffy, cloud-like white panicles that bloom from late spring all the way through fall. Unlike most bigleaf hydrangeas whose color shifts with soil pH, Dreamcloud stays a clean, pure white regardless of your soil — making it one of the most reliable and elegant choices available. A robust rebloomer, it produces a spectacular flush on old wood in spring, then continues blooming on new wood throughout summer and fall when deadheaded. Large, serrated dark green leaves provide a lush backdrop for the abundant flower show, and the blooms are a magnet for butterflies and pollinators. Thrives in part sun with rich, moist, well-drained soils.
