I’ve had one of these for about four years and it struggles constantly. The stems are weak all around, even just holding up a lot of foliage, let alone the massive flower heads. Flops straight into the ground and looks awful. It will shoot of flower heads 3 inches from the ground and just looks a mess when they hit the ground.

I've had one of these plants for about 8 years, It produces huge, full flowers, with tightly-packed petals. It's beautiful in the fall too, as the leaves turn burgundy. However, the flowers flop quite a bit because the stems are not strong enough to hold them up. Also, the Japanese Beetles love it.

I am crazy about Oakleaf hydrangeas, and after watching 4 Gatsby Gal thrive and grow perfectly over the last 4-5yrs I decided I had to try Gatsby Moon. I bought 2 quart-sized, on sale, during the Fall of last year. They did well but, as with many quart-sized plants from PW, didn't emerge in Spring looking healthy after a very wet winter. I transplanted them to a more elevated place, to improve drainage (clay soil) and they immediately thrived. I love them so much I bought 2 more gallon-sized for a different spot, which grew over a foot and had perfect flowers, still lovely today. As long as thEy have good drainage, they will thrive.

I planted one of these 5 years ago and it is one of my favorite plants.It has something for all seasons, it has cool leaves all the time, the flowers start white and then dry as a pink/rust green that adds interest to the winter garden. Such a great, low maintenance shade plant!!!
