NEW HYDRANGEAS

1 Cloud Nine hybrid hydrangea 

Hydrangea '18/1'

Southern Living Plant 1 Collection/Sunset Plant Collection This unique new hydrangea offers white lacecap flowers that line its stems from spring to fall. With their frilly edges, the kite-shaped petals contribute fascinating detail in the garden or a vase. The pure white color stands out against the dark green foliage and brightens shady spaces.

Cloud Nine grows three to four feet high and wide. It requires part sun or shade conditions and moderate water. USDA Zones 7b-10.

2 Endless Summer Pop Star bigleaf hydrangeaHydrangea macrophylla ‘Bailmacsix’

Bailey Nurseries

Pop Star is a natural fit for the border, low hedge or large pot. Its lacecap flowers provide visual texture while catering to pollinators, and its thick leaves hold up well in hot summers. Pop Star is exceptionally quick to rebloom, with new buds appearing just four weeks after a hard cutback. (This treatment is not recommended; it was a test mimicking a bud-killing winter or accidental fall pruning.)

Pop Star grows 18 to 36 inches tall and wide. Its flowers will be neon blue or bright pink depending on soil pH and the presence of aluminum. Provide regular water and sun or part shade. Zones 4–9.

3 Seaside Serenade Glacier Bay bigleaf hydrangeaHydrangea macrophylla ‘CAMCHO45’
