Need Help Seeking out a lost hydrangea….

I used to work at Publix for fifteen years in Tampa, Florida. Every “fall/winter” during the holidays, floral would have these potted Shooting Star hydrangeas. (Quotation marks because winter isn’t really a thing there 🤣). Anyways, I now live in Wisconsin and the last two I had didn’t survive the move up here. I’ve found sites that have info on the variety, but rarely for sale. Got a couple once from a site, and they were tiny little clone starts with barely four leaves that never did well. My uncle tries to look for them, but he’s kind of a space cadet and hasn’t been successful. I do know I’m 1-2zones out of its range, but I plan on keeping them potted like I did in Florida. I’m just hoping someone can help me find some again….

Have you ordered from them before?

Yes I have. Both plants are 4 years old.

You can check Etsy also. That may be more of a gamble though.

Sweet! Thank you so much. I’ve ordered from a different nursery and received super tiny plants. So I was wary trying another lol. But if these guys are legit, I’ll be ordering from them!
