3-Gallon White Wedding Hydrangea is a compact deciduous shrub with a densely rounded habit that blooms on new wood. The massive pillow-like panicles of creamy white flowers bloom from late summer into fall attracting butterflies. While can tolerate full sun, its best blooms are in part sun and rich, moist well-drained acidic soils.
