Hydrangea ‘PeeGee’ blooms over a long season, with the flowers starting white in midsummer, aging to pink, and finally turning rust brown in autumn. ‘PeeGee’ hydrangea is a fast-growing, adaptable shrub that thrives almost anywhere. It tolerates acidic to neutral soils as long as they are well-drained. You can prune ‘PeeGee’ hydrangea in late winter since it produces its flowers on new growth. To get the biggest flower clusters on your block, reduce the number of stems by cutting the previous year’s shoots back to within just a few buds of the main branches.

‘PeeGee’ hydrangea is the most cold-hardy, most adaptable, most tolerant of urban conditions, and the most commonly cultivated hydrangea in the northern U.S. Its pyramid-shaped clusters of white to pink flowers have brightened yards for 150 years.

Planting Instructions: May be planted in any well-drained soil. 1. Dig a hole large enough to encompass the roots without bending or circling. 2. Set the plant in place so the crown (part of the plant where the root meets the stem) is about 1-2" below the soil surface. 3. Cover with soil to original soil surface. Water thoroughly.
