Vanilla Strawberry Hydrangea

Try a miraculous Vanilla Strawberry Hydrangea (Hydrangea paniculata 'Renhy') in your landscape. You'll be so pleased with its playful, strawberry-pink blooms and graceful nature. You'll want more than one!

These First Editions® plants are nothing short of spectacular. The show begins in spring with green leaves filling out the stems that later turn a lovely red shade. Mid-summer brings on a fabulous display of full blooms.

Watch as your flowers do a color change during the season for you. The large panicles - comprised of densely-clustered, tiny flowers - begin creamy white in mid-summer and slowly turn pink.

The white flowers pick up pink color as the blooms age, and it is intensified with cooler nights and warm days in sunnier locations. As summer progresses, you'll be treated to a mixture of floral color on the same plant as white turns to white with pink centers. . .to deeper strawberry red. Fantastic!

Cut some of the stunning Vanilla Strawberry Hydrangea blooms to enjoy indoors, or leave on your plant for winter. The flowers will cling to the stems (drying to a pale, silvery-tan), and persist as a decorative feature through the winter months.

Vanilla Strawberry Hydrangea was named top plant by the American Nursery and Landscape Association. A relative of the classic PeeGee Hydrangea, Vanilla Strawberry's improved features make it a must-have for your garden.

You'll also be popular with hummingbirds and butterflies that contribute to the beauty of your yard.

It has strong, sturdy upright stems that won't droop under the weight of its impressive blooms. And its rich, green foliage creates the perfect backdrop for its summertime display of blooms.

Plant in full sun in the northern growing Zones, or give it partial shade in the afternoon in the warmer summers of Zones 7 and 8.

It loves well-drained soils that are rich in organic matter, so include a top-dressing of compost each year. Mulch over the root system to keep them nice and moist. Provide a moderate amount of water on a regular basis.
