Let's Dance® Big Easy® Hydrangea macrophylla ‘Berner’

Let’s Dance Big Easy Hydrangea (Hydrangea macrophylla ‘Big Easy’) is a standout in the Let’s Dance series, known for its exceptionally large, vibrant flower clusters and dependable reblooming habit. The blooms open a soft blush and quickly deepen into rich raspberry pink in alkaline soils or striking blue in acidic soils. These oversized mophead flowers appear on both old and new wood, ensuring a continuous wave of color from early summer well into fall. Its lush green foliage provides a beautiful contrast that highlights the bloom intensity throughout the season.

Compact in size at about 2–3 feet tall and wide, Big Easy is a perfect fit for foundation beds, border plantings, and patio containers. Despite its manageable footprint, its bloom size and color variation offer a dramatic visual impact. This variety thrives in partial shade, particularly morning sun paired with afternoon shade, and benefits from soil enriched with organic matter. With reliable reblooming, bold flowers, and easy-care performance, Let’s Dance Big Easy Hydrangea brings both charm and energy to modern and traditional landscapes alike.

Care Instructions

Planting
Plant in partial shade with morning sun for best growth. Use rich, well-drained soil amended with compost to support strong blooming.

Watering
Maintain consistently moist soil. Deep weekly watering helps sustain large blooms and encourages continuous reblooming.

Pruning
Prune lightly after the first bloom cycle. Avoid heavy pruning since it blooms on old and new wood. Remove dead or weak stems in early spring.

Pest Control
Watch for aphids, mites, and powdery mildew. Improve air circulation and use insecticidal soap or horticultural oil as needed.

Soil Tips
Fertile, well-drained soil is essential. Adjust pH to modify bloom color, acidic for blue, alkaline for pink. Mulch to retain moisture and stabilize temperature.
