Azure Skies Hydrangea is a reblooming deciduous shrub with a rounded habit and rich green leaves that turn yellow in fall. The mophead flower clusters bloom on both old and new wood, with color that depends on the soil PH - acidic soils produce the signature bright blue while alkaline soils produce pink. The flowers attract pollinators. Best bloom in partial sun and rich, moist well-drained soils.
