Hydrangea Endless Summer® BloomStruck
Bigleaf Hydrangea ‘BloomStruck’,Hydrangea Endless Summer® BloomStruck is a vibrant, reblooming hydrangea that delivers continuous color from summer into fall. This standout variety is admired for its large, mophead blooms that range from deep rose-pink to vivid violet-blue, depending on soil pH. Acidic soils produce blue flowers, while more alkaline soils result in pink to purple tones. Supported by strong red-purple stems and glossy dark green leaves with red veins, BloomStruck combines beauty and durability for lasting garden impact.
Unlike traditional hydrangeas that bloom only on old wood, BloomStruck flowers on both old and new growth, ensuring reliable blooms season after season, even after harsh winters. Its lush, rounded form makes it a perfect addition to borders, foundation plantings, or as a focal point in containers. The blooms also make excellent cut flowers, fresh or dried, for long-lasting indoor enjoyment.
Resilient and adaptable, BloomStruck thrives in partial shade with consistent moisture. Its vivid color range, long blooming period, and strong stems make it one of the most versatile and rewarding hydrangeas for home landscapes.
Care Instructions:
Planting: Choose a location with rich, well-draining soil and morning sun with afternoon shade.
Sunlight: Prefers partial sun; avoid intense afternoon sun to prevent leaf scorch.
Watering: Keep soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, especially during dry periods.
Fertilizing: Feed in spring and mid-summer with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer. For bluer blooms, apply aluminum sulfate to acidify the soil.
Pruning: Prune only to remove dead or damaged wood; avoid heavy pruning to preserve old wood blooms.
Winter Care: Apply a thick layer of mulch around the base to protect roots and buds from winter cold.
Companion Plants: Pairs beautifully with hostas, ferns, and astilbes, which thrive in similar conditions.
