Hydrangea petiolaris - Climbing Hydrangea
Hydrangea 'Let's Dance 'Can Do!™' is an excellent rebloomer with big, vibrant flowers. The buds are set all along the stem, not just in the growing tips. What this means for you is that if the stem is cut back, it will still bloom because of the buds being lower.
Uses: Borders, Landscapes, Mass Planting
Notable Features: Cut Flower
Growth Habit: Mounding
Homeowner Growing Tips: Flower color will change depending on the pH of the soil. To get blue flowers the soil should be more acidic (we recommend mixing lots of Canadian peat moss into the soil before planting); flowers will be pink in more alkaline soils. This Hydrangea flowers on both new and old wood. Best time to prune is early spring as growth resumes, removing only dead stems and tips. After it blooms, tips may be deadheaded, but complete pruning before August so that the flower buds can form prior to winter.
