Can Do! Hydrangea serrata is a fast-growing compact deciduous shrub with a tidy habit and the ability to create flower clusters all along the stems instead of just the ends like other hydrangea. The laceap flower clusters' color depends on the PH of the soil- in acidic soils the flowers will be lavender while alkaline flowers will be strawberry pink. Its a repeat bloomer with the first bloom on old wood in early summer and quickly reblooms again later in summer on new wood. Best bloom in partial sun and rich, moist well-drained soils. The Lets Dance series has an early rebloom, improved hardiness, and tightly compact habit.
