Hydrangea macrophylla Let’s Dance Can Do, commonly known as Hydrangea, is a reblooming hydrangea that produces large lacecap-style flower heads in shades of bright pink or rich lavender-blue, depending on soil pH. Unlike many traditional varieties, this shrub blooms on both old and new wood, ensuring reliable flowering from early summer through fall—even after harsh winters. Growing 3 to 4 feet tall and wide with a tidy, mounded form, Let’s Dance Can Do adds bold color and texture to part-shade borders, foundation plantings, and pollinator-friendly gardens.
