Vanilla Strawberry hydrangea ( hydrangea paniculata 'Vanilla Strawberry' ) a member of the peegee hydrangea family. With blooms that arise continuously for many weeks, changing colors as they mature, plus a habit that turns from upright to cascading, 'Vanilla Strawberry' is a showpiece of a shrub that looks a bit different every time you glance at it, all summer long! the enormous pointed flower heads get underway in midsummer in most climates, beginning green, then quickly turning a creamy shade of white. Within a week or two they are blushing pink, & eventually become a rich shade of rose! large, well-branched, & vigorous, 'Vanilla Strawberry' reaches 6 to 7' high & 4 to 5' wide within just a few seasons. The flowers continue well into fall in most areas, & are, as you can imagine, spectacular in fresh & dried arrangements. The bright green foliage is dense & attractive too, so 'Vanilla Strawberry' always looks its best. Does well in full sun or part shade. Bloom time: mid summer to fall flower color: white/ pink/ dark pink mature height: 6-8' mature width: 4-6' exposure: full sun to partial shade hardiness zones: 4-9
