Vanilla Strawberry Hydrangea Shrub (Hydrangea paniculata ‘Renhy’) is a hardy, low-maintenance deciduous shrub thriving in USDA zones 3-8. It matures to an impressive 60-72 inches wide and 72-96 inches tall, showcasing large, multicolored flower heads that transition from creamy white to pink and finally strawberry red from midsummer to fall. Perfect for outdoor landscapes, containers, and floral arrangements, this shrub ships dormant in winter to early spring and requires moderate watering and partial to full sun exposure. ## Description Vanilla Strawberry Panicle Hydrangea features enormous flower heads that are held upright on red stems. The flowers emerge creamy white in midsummer, change to pink as the night temperatures drop, and finally turn strawberry red later in fall. New flowers emerge as older blooms change color, giving Vanilla Strawberry a multicolored effect in late summer and early fall. The large blooms are excellent for fresh cut and dried flower arrangements and are especially well-liked for dried winter floral displays. ## Features - Thrives in USDA zones 3-8 - Grows to mature size 60-72″ W x 72-96″ H - Full sun to partial shade - Deciduous – Foliage loss in winter and new growth in spring - Used in containers, landscapes, and as accents - Recommended spacing 60 inches - Botanical Name – Hydrangea paniculata ‘Renhy’ PP20,670 - Low maintenance - Ships dormant winter through early spring - Plants are trimmed at times when shipped to promote plant health ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B089XB6BN6 | | Best Sellers Rank | #57,701 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ( See Top 100 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ) #711 in Flower Plants & Seeds | | Brand | First Editions | | Brand Name | First Editions | | Color | White/Pink | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 372 Reviews | | Expected Blooming Period | Spring to Fall | | Expected Plant Height | 72 inches | | Expected Planting Period | Spring to Fall | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Outdoor | | Indoor/Outdoor Usage | Outdoor | | Item Type Name | Hydrangea | | Item Weight | 11 pounds | | Manufacturer | First Edition | | Manufacturer Part Number | Vanilla Strawberry | | Material Feature | Organic | | Material Features | Organic | | Model Number | Vanilla Strawberry | | Moisture Needs | Moderate Watering | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Other Special Features of the Product | Fresh Flowers | | Plant or Animal Product Type | Shrub & Hedge | | Product Care Instructions | Water before planting• Plant in Full Sun• Dig hole 3X the width of pot• Back-fill and plant 1″-2″ above soil level• Water and add more soil if needed• Mulch plants• Fertilize in early spring | | Special Feature | Fresh Flowers | | Style Name | Classic | | Sunlight Exposure | Full sun to partial shade | | UPC | 093474145308 | | USDA Hardiness Zone | 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** First Editions - **Color:** White/Pink - **Expected Blooming Period:** Spring to Fall - **Expected Planting Period:** Spring to Fall - **Indoor/Outdoor Usage:** Outdoor - **Item Weight:** 11 pounds - **Material Feature:** Organic - **Special Feature:** Fresh Flowers - **Sunlight Exposure:** Full sun to partial shade - **Unit Count:** 1 Count ## Images ![3 Gal.

Just received mine last night and I can tell you this thing is not even worth $5! I have many color variety of hydrangeas but this is the weakest and smallest I’ll have to see if it comes around. Just looks wrong on many levels. Now I’m stuck with it. DO NOT BUY!!!!! **Q: When do you plant , fall?** A: Up receipt. I planted mine the end of July. Arrived with green leaves mottled with brown and after a week in the ground I see some new growth. Won’t flower until next Spring and that’s with luck . Smaller plant than I expected but Hydrangeas grow quickly I believe **Q: Has anyone seen these hydrangeas bloom? I’m so underwhelmed by what I received and not sure if I should make efforts to care for this tiny little bush** A: We ordered one from Amazon and it arrived in excellent condition. We planted and watered it immediately and it has bloomed all summer. It hasn't shown the "strawberry" color we were hoping for but my understanding is that it occurs late summer/fall. **Q: Need to know when to prune them. Do they bloom on old wood or new?** A: They bloom on new wood. I believe you prune late winter or early spring. You can google that particular type of hydrangea and get info specific for that variety. ## Frequently Bought Together - First Edition Vanilla Strawberry Hydrangea, 3 Gal, White/Pink - Proven Winner Let's Dance Rhythmic Hydrangea, 2 Gallon, Lustrous Green Foliage with Rich Blue Blooms - 2 Gal.
