Sunlight Choose a location with morning sun and afternoon shade. If you live in zones 6 or lower, the more sun the better. Avoid planting your hydrangeas in a heavily shaded spot.
Watering Give your Hydrangea an inch of water each week. This includes any rainfall. If you're not sure when and how much to water, simply check the surrounding soil about 2 inches down for dryness and water until it feels moist.
Fertilizing Apply a good time-release fertilizer in summer (only one time during the year). Discontinue fertilizing if the plant appears wilted or unhealthy.

Blooms Each Year, Reliably
Why Endless Summer® Hydrangeas?
You'll have the look of summer, long after the season is over. Blooming early in the summer season, the incredibly beautiful, frost-proof Endless Summer® Hydrangea will give the warmth of summer to your garden with lovely blooms up until Thanksgiving.
Compare that to other typical varieties that only bloom for a few weeks before withering for the year. And the colorful blooms of the Endless Summer® are gigantic, offering a parade of flowers that thrive whether they're planted in shade or full sun. Hydrangeas make great hedges, too, so you can line a fence or walkway with them.

Planting & Care
1. Planting: Choose a location with morning sun and afternoon shade. If you live in zones 6 or lower, the more sun the better. Avoid planting your hydrangeas in a heavily shaded spot. Give your Hydrangeas plenty of room to grow.
Soil content is also important for Hydrangeas because it should drain well yet also maintain sufficient moisture. Also, the acidity levels of the soil will have a direct impact on the color of your flowers. For deep blue flowers, keep pH below 5.5. For pink or red flowers neutralize soil to pH 7.0 or higher.
When you're ready to plant, dig the planting hole 2 feet wider than the root ball and to a depth of the tip of the root ball. Set the Hydrangea in the hole, making sure it is not planted too deeply. Finally, water to settle the roots.
2. Watering: Give your Hydrangea an inch of water each week. This includes any rainfall. If you're not sure when and how much to water, simply check the surrounding soil about 2 inches down. If the soil is dry here, it's time to water until it's moist.
3. Fertilizing: Fertilize your Hydrangeas once in the summer prior to August. Apply a good time-release fertilizer at this time, only one time during the year. Discontinue fertilizing if the plant appears wilted or unhealthy.
4. Pruning: Prune in the spring to remove dead tips from winter. Our Endless Summer® Hydrangeas bloom on new wood, so you can also prune back in the fall or early spring for shaping without worry - it'll grow and bloom again!
FGT Tip: Add lime to raise soil pH if you want to grow pink flowers. If you want blue flowers, add sulfur to lower the soil's pH.

United StatesBoth arrived healthy and ready to plant.
United StatesMy it was a slow start because of the hot sun but they are doing so much better now. With new growth and beautiful blue flowers. So glad we bought them

United StatesSo this got complicated. I ordered six Endless Summer hydrangeas. They shipped promptly and seem to have been nice, sturdy plants before the FedEx blender got hold of them. The boxes arrived damaged and were left on our porch stood on their ends instead of being laid flat as was clearly marked on the boxes in several places. The plants shifted during shipping and had several bent and broken branches. I contacted customer service and they asked me to send photos of the plants. I did this and the company promptly processed a replacement shipment - great! The problem is that FedEx was once again the delivery agent and the second set of plants were as badly beaten up as the first. I think I will be able to get five-six decent plants out of the two shipments and I hope the other ones may spring back come next year - we’ll see. The high quality of the plants and the excellent customer service would make me want to order from FGT again - but the concerns about shipping-related damage would definitely make me hesitate.
We are so sorry that your replacements arrived in poor shape! We have reached back out to see how we can make this right!
United StatesThe plant was very well packaged and arrived in good condition, with only minor wilting of newer leaves. However, even with hydrating the plant, the wilted leaves did not recover, so I pruned off the affected stems, and since then the plant looks healthy and happy.
