Featured Plant - 'Big Daddy' Hydrangea

Big Daddy Click here for larger image You won’t believe the 12-14" flower-heads on this charming Hydrangea from ItSaul Plants! Pink in alkaline (limey) soils and blue in acidic soils, they’re as big as balloons at a child’s birthday party.

If you’re looking for a trouble-free garden grouping, or just an accent plant that commands attention, ‘Big Daddy’ is the one! Each gigantic flower-head is composed of masses of tightly-clustered florets that radiate bright color.

Perfect for fresh, and dried arrangements, ‘Big Daddy’ will add intrigue and romance to your garden from early summer through fall…an especially long bloom time for a Hydrangea. You just can’t loose with ‘Big Daddy’! Even when it’s not in bloom, this shrub is attractive and easy to care for. Dark-green, glossy leaves appear to be polished, on stems that provide a sturdy branching habit. ‘Big Daddy’ reaches 5-6' high and wide in no time, making a lovely accent for the front yard, along the driveway, as a foundation planting, or in large patio containers.

Unlike many Hydrangeas, ‘Big Daddy’ performs fine in the full sun, though it responds to some shade in the southern part of its hardiness range. Best of all, ‘Big Daddy’ is easy to grow in the hot, humid summers of the South and the Midwest. Of course, good soil is a must, but once established, this Hydrangea will prove to be a reliable performer with little need for special care.

Try one ‘Big Daddy’ in your garden this year, and we guarantee that you’ll be back for more! Over-the-top beauty doesn’t come along very often, and ‘Big Daddy’ makes a super addition to any garden setting. Click here for coupon >

We carry a wide selection of plant material selected just for our growing zone. With the improvement in breeding techniques today’s plant material blooms longer, in some cases, re-blooms and is more disease and pest resistant.

Evergreen and flowering shrubs are the backbone of any landscape. Whether it is in a foundation planting or a garden border there is a wide range of plant material that can add depth and dimension to your garden. There are two types of shrubs: deciduous and evergreen. Deciduous shrubs such as Lilac, Forsythia and certain types of Azaleas will flower, foliate and then lose their foliage in the fall season.

Evergreen shrubs like Rhododendron, most Azaleas and Andromeda will feature evergreen foliage all year round, flower and then flush with new growth by summer. The benefit of flowering evergreens is that you benefit from the best of both worlds – beautiful flowers in spring and evergreen foliage for privacy and structure to support the overall landscape plan.

Evergreens, or conifers, are generally needled and retain their needles year round. Evergreens can function as a unifying element in the landscape, or in some cases, a focal point. These focal points, or specimens, can add real drama to a landscape.

Some of the new introductions to look for at the nursery are:

Hydrangea paniculata ‘Limelight’. An exciting new hardy Hydrangea from Holland. 'Limelight' has unique bright green blooms in mid-summer that holds its bright and refreshing color right into autumn when the blooms change color to a rich deep pink. The autumn display of green and pink blooms on the same plant is breathtaking!
