Pairs well with

Dark ruby-pink mophead flowers 8 to 10 inches across open in late June on this smooth hydrangea and age to a soft parchment pink. Hydrangea arborescens DreamScape® 'BAICZ10' grows 3 to 4 feet tall and 4 to 5 feet wide in full sun to part shade, hardy from Zone 3 through Zone 8.

The heads do not all open at once, so both colors are on the plant together through much of the summer, and the flowers hold well cut or dried on the stem. Its main bloom comes mid-season.

Smooth hydrangea, Hydrangea arborescens, is native to the eastern United States and is one of the hardiest garden hydrangeas, reliable into Zone 3. It flowers on new wood, forming its buds in spring on the current year's growth, so a hard winter or a late frost does not cost it a season of bloom. Soil pH does not change the flower color.

Cut the stems back to about 18 inches in late winter or early spring, before new growth starts, and the plant flowers the same summer on the growth that follows. Leaving that framework rather than cutting to the ground builds thicker stems to carry the flower heads. Smooth hydrangeas need steady moisture, tolerate wet ground, and do best with shade from midday on where summers run hot. Deer do browse them.

Thick, upright stems carry the heavy heads, and the dark green leaves stay clean late into the season. The rounded habit, slightly wider than tall, fills the middle of a foundation planting or a mixed shrub border.

I've received four roses from Spotswood Greenery and each won has been a big, healthy, beautiful plant. Shipping is super quick and prices are reasonable. I'm super satisfied and will be ordering many more!

Exceptional Roses

EXCEPTIONAL ROSES!

Recently, I received a #3 pot Wollerton Old Hall Rose, a #3 Alnwick Rose, and a #2 pot Sweet Mademoiselle rose from Spotswood Greenery. I could not be more pleased and grateful. All plants are in perfect condition. Each is supported by incredibly healthy roots, several Charles Atlas-like stems, and beautiful foliage. Packaging was very secure. Clearly done with care! Shipping was quite prompt. Now, pricing! I've grown roses for 40 of my 67 years. In that time, it's easy for me to say that Spotswood has exceeded every other source without question. I found three roses in stock I had wanted! The quality is champion! The prices are very good, excellent when one buys at the free shipping level! Worth every penny! Thank you, every one, on the Spotswood Greenery Team!

I just received my hypericum red fame and was amazed how big it was and just as pretty as my established one I have had a couple years. So happy because the last one I ordered online from another nursery came as a little stub compared to this! I will definitely use Spotswood Greenery for now on!

Quick shipping

Bought a David Austin rose; it arrived quickly however it had some damage upon arrival. Ended up pruning and defoliating a good bit to get rid of the broken cane and pest damage, but I expect it to be a beautiful bush down the road.

Comfortable ordering process

The information and accuracy of the description of the ordered plants was great. The ability to search for specific plants was nice. Could search for terms not pre-defined and still came up with relevant specimens.

The online ordering process went smoothly.

I ordered ~8 David Austin roses from here. They were equal in quality to the ones at my local nurseries (better than some), and $10 cheaper. Established roots, full of buds that have become gorgeous blooms. Will absolutely order from Spotswood again!

Planting and Care Guide

Planting Tips

Plant in moist, well-drained soil enriched with compost. Space 4-5 feet apart. Water thoroughly after planting and keep the root zone evenly moist through the first season. In hot climates, choose a spot that gets shade from mid afternoon on.

Care Tips

Water regularly, especially through the first two seasons and in hot spells. Smooth hydrangeas wilt visibly when dry and recover once watered, but repeated wilting shortens the bloom display. Mulch to hold soil moisture and keep the roots cool. Prune in late winter or early spring, cutting the plant back by about a third to leave a woody framework that supports the flower heads; cutting harder, to a few inches, gives fewer but larger blooms. Because flowering is on new wood, pruning timing is forgiving and winter cold does not remove flower buds. A balanced fertilizer in spring is enough. Deer browse smooth hydrangeas, so use repellent or fencing where pressure is heavy.
