Product description
This elegant shrub is a standout in the Endless Summer series, celebrated for its pure white, globe-shaped flower heads that occasionally take on a subtle blush of soft pink or pale green as they age. Unlike traditional mophead hydrangeas, 'The Bride' is a reblooming variety that produces magnificent flowers on both old and new wood, ensuring a continuous and reliable display of classic, romantic blooms.
To keep this hydrangea thriving, plant it in a position that receives morning sun and dappled afternoon shade to prevent the delicate white petals from scorching. It prefers rich, porous soil that is kept consistently moist but never waterlogged; applying a thick layer of mulch around the base will help retain vital moisture and keep the root system cool.
Please Note: When purchasing plants, please consider that each live item is unique and may therefore differ from the images shown, which are for illustration purposes only. The plant will be supplied in a growers pot. Depending on season, some plants may be pruned back to encourage growth and deciduous plants may arrive without leaves.

Garden Plant Size Guide
Plants in larger pots can be multiple years older than their smaller counterparts with more mature root systems and foliage. This makes them able to thrive as a full size plant in your garden quicker than smaller alternatives.
The most common size of pot that garden plants come in are 9cm/1L/3L/5L this is in reference to the diameter at the top of the pot.
9cm potted plants still remain the most popular cost effective option though, they just may take a little patience to allow them to grow into full maturity once planted in your garden.

Top Tip
Unlike other varieties, the stunning white blooms of Hydrangea Endless Summer The Bride are completely unaffected by your soil's pH level! To keep it blooming profusely all season, simply snip off the faded flower heads right above the next set of fat green buds.
How to Water
To keep hydrangeas thriving, maintain consistently moist but well-drained soil. Water deeply at the base of the plant 2–3 times a week to reach the roots while keeping foliage dry to prevent disease. During intense summer heat, they may need daily attention to prevent wilting. Avoid overhead sprinkling and stagnant water, as "wet feet" can cause root rot. A layer of mulch helps retain necessary moisture and regulate ground temperature.
How to Plant
Dig a hole twice as wide as the pot for Hydrangea Endless Summer The Bride, ensuring the crown is perfectly flush with the soil line. Mix rich compost into the backfill dirt to help establish its roots, then press the earth firmly around to remove air pockets and water deeply.
