Wrong Color
The plant arrived today with lots of flower all over it however to my disappointment the plants flowers are bright pink and not purple. I know that some hydrangeas can change color depending on the soil I hope that happens with mine.

Hi Ashyrae- thanks for the feedback. Hopefully the acidity of your soil or amendments has changed the blooms to the color you prefer. If this still seems to be an issue, please don't hesitate to reach out to our team at helpdesk@provenwinnersdirect.com so we can further assist! -Allyson, Proven Winners Direct

    Hydrangea Heaven!
    I was a little skeptical about ordering plants online without seeing them first but I’m so happy that I did! They were shipped within 2 days of ordering and they arrived 4 days early! They came in their own individual boxes and were wrapped in a mesh/plastic sleeve. They are in bloom and look healthy. They are a VIBRANT hot pink instead of the dark purple I was expecting, but I’m 1000% ok with that. I’m giddy for these wee grumpy hydrangeas!

      Great value, healthy plants, compact size.
      Plants arrived in excellent shape. If you have an area where it’s difficult to dig large holes ( I am in a condo association and they filled the foundation area with sand/soil/large rocks mixture) these smaller rootball starter bushes are a fabulous alternative to the gallon pots. Plants were all in excellent condition, and after hardening off for 10 days they are even forming blooms. Looking forward to some nice years ahead.

      Disappointed in hardiness
      These actually looked ok when we received them but, 2 months later 4 of 6 are dead and the last 2 are barely hanging in there. Watered every day for the first couple of weeks after planting and then let the sprinkler system take over (twice a week, unless we have a lot of rain), so water and filtered sun not the problem. Got similar hydrangeas from a local nursery a year ago and they have thrived. Wanted a little different variety this time, but should have gone back to the nursery!

        The hydrangeas were just pre-bloom when delivered, well-protected, and probably the healthiest plant I've ever had delivered. Now if I can only get my soil right to make this beauty shine. :) LOVE the purple/blue combo! I wish I had an entire hedge of these.

        It was very small,but healthy looking. After I planted it a few leaves turned brown. Seems ok but I'm watching it.

        Plants came in beautiful condition! I ordered too early in a fit of “early spring” forgetting I couldn’t plant them for a while. But they’re thriving in their containers sitting in the sun in my kitchen until it’s warm enough to plant. Would Order again!

        Plant arrived in good condition with healthy green leaves. I potted it in a container to keep in the garage over the winter. I’ve had it for about a month.

        The plant came to me with only half the amount of soil than it should have. And over wet. I reported it, cut it back, and I think it’s going to make it. Although nothing like I expected.

          This would have been 5 stars if the flowers were purple…they are a beautiful pink. I love the plant. You do a wonderful job shipping them and letting the customer know when to expect delivery

          Hi Mary Ann- thanks for the review! The color of the blooms will depend on your soil acidity with this variety of hydrangea. To make your soil more acidic and encourage deep purple blooms, add aluminum sulfate. Please reach out to our customer service team at helpdesk@provenwinnersdirect.com if you have any other questions! -Allyson, Proven Winners Direct

          The plant was small, but very healthy, it’s been in the ground since arriving and has doubled in size, I’m hoping to see a blossom forming soon. Excellent price, quick shipping. Thanks HD
