'Let's Dance Starlight' is a lacecap hydrangea (some sources describe mophead) that blooms on both old and new wood, providing flowers from early summer through frost. The color is typically pink to blue based on soil pH. The plant grows 2-3 feet tall and wide—compact and manageable. The Let's Dance® series was bred specifically for reliable reblooming in cold climates.
Culture: part shade, moist well-drained soil. Morning sun ideal. Unlike traditional macrophyllas, this rebloomer tolerates more aggressive pruning. Hardy zones 5-9. 'Let's Dance Starlight' keeps the garden dancing all summer long.
