Endless Summer® Hydrangea

After two weeks in mostly shade, the new growth is already showing those signature blue-green buds. My neighbor stopped to ask what kind of hydrangea it was, since it's clearly blooming earlier than her standard ones.

Planted one by the mailbox in early May and it's already covered in fat blue mophead blooms, with new buds forming on the same stems. The reblooming through fall is the real deal, not just a one-hit wonder. Even the leaves held up through a July heatwave without scorching.

I put three of these in the ground last spring and the first blooms showed up in just a few weeks, then they just kept coming until the first frost. The color shifted from pink to blue depending on the soil pH, which was a fun surprise. Very happy with how long they flowered.
