Massive globe shaped blooms make smooth hydrangeas a standout in summer gardens across America. Thriving in sunny locations, Hydrangea arborescence earned a reputation for leaning heavily when the blooms were in full glory. Their remarkable blooms (‘Annabelle’ can reach 12” across!) were so large that the stems could not support their weight! Over the past several years plant breeders have developed varieties with compact habits and sturdy stems, insuring that you can see and enjoy your smooth hydrangea blooms all summer long.
‘Dreamscape’, a new introduction for 2027 that we are featuring early at Squak Mt., features magnificent 8-10” bloom heads in deep ruby pink. The flowers mature to a softer pink, and remain standing despite bouts of wind and rain. ‘Dreamscape’ produces two or three times as many blooms, compared to other arborescence varieties over the course of the summer, bringing even more color to enjoy in your garden!
‘Dreamscape’ grows 3-4’ tall and 4-5’ wide, its compact shape allowing it to be enjoyed in many varied places in your landscape. Very cold hardy and easy to grow, consider turning your landscape into a ‘Dreamscape’ today
