Bring timeless beauty to your garden with Gatsby Moon®, a native hydrangea known for its pure white, tightly packed panicles that boast a unique 'quilted' texture. As the blooms age, they shift to a graceful shade of green that lasts well into the summer. The green oakleaf foliage is a standout in its own right, offering vibrant wine-red hues in the fall. Gatsby Moon® is a stunning addition to any landscape, providing visual interest and color throughout the seasons.

Our deciduous shrubs are entering their natural dormancy phase. As part of this process, foliage is turning colors, drying out, and falling off—this is completely normal! Shedding leaves helps the plants conserve energy and prepare for the next growing season. Rest assured, your shrubs will wake up and thrive again when it's time in your growing zone. Dormancy is how they prepare for a healthy, vibrant comeback as the seasons change!

Care:  Fertilize with Proven Winners Continuous Release Plant Food in spring and mid-summer. Pruning is not generally recommended. Dead or damaged wood can be removed at any time. Soil pH does not affect flower color.
