By far, this is a favorite hydrangea for many gardeners. Its blooms are large and colorful. In neutral soil, you can expect pink or light blue colors, but in acid soil, this plant produces an abundance of rich blue mophead blooms.

PLANT OF THE DAY – ORANGE ROCKET BARBERRY

This shrub has so much going for it. Color, size and a columnar growth pattern. The new foliage is a coral-orange color that ages to a medium green and then turns ruby red in the fall. It’s a perfect plant for brightening you landscape, as a mass planting, a specimen focal point or in a large container.
