THE HYDRANGEAS A Windy Hill Farm Specialty Unrivaled as summer- and fall-blooming ornamentals. We offer over 25 selections. Container and field-grown specimens in shrub and tree form. These are some of our favorites.
THURSDAYS
Hydrangea arborescens – Compact early blooming, durable and adaptable. Selections include ‘Annabelle’, 'Flowerfull',‘ ‘Incrediball’, and ‘Invincibelle Ruby’. Hydrangea macrophylla – ‘Popstar’ – Hardiest and most reliable re-bloomer developed yet, with lace cap flowers of violet blue to pink blooms, and red fall color. Hydrangea paniculata ‘Bobo’ – A very floriferous compact growing Peegee type. Excellent for foundation plantings and small spaces. Hydrangea paniculata 'Diamond Rouge', ‘Firelight' and 'Firelight Tidbit’ – In our opinion the best paniculatas with white blooms maturing to pomegranate red. Hydrangea paniculata ‘Limelight’, and ‘Little Lime’ – An extraordinary paniculata that boasts large lime green flowers. Selections of various sizes available. Hydrangea paniculata ‘Little Lime Punch’, and ‘Limelight Prime’ – A compact, early bloomer maturing to rich pink and red. Hydrangea paniculata ‘Phantom’ – The largest flowers of the paniculata types. Strong stems. Hydrangea paniculata ‘Pink Diamond’ – Tall, airy panicles of creamy flowers opening in late summer turning pink and then a deep shade of rose. Tree and shrub forms available. Hydrangea paniculata ‘Little Quick Fire’, and ‘Quick Fire Fab’ – An early-flowering selection with pure white bloom quickly turning reddish pink and remaining effective for months. Excellent selection of heights in tree and shrub form. Hydrangea paniculata ‘Strawberry Sundae’– Enormous flower heads of a blend of vanilla and strawberry. Plants grow upright, cascading later in the season. Tree and shrub forms available. Hydrangea petiolaris – Spectacular shade-tolerant climbing vine with attractive rich green foliage, reddish shredding bark, and fragrant white flowers through summer into fall. Our favorite flowering vine. Hydrangea quercifolia – Oakleaf Hydrangea. Selections include ‘Jet Stream’, ‘Ruby Slippers’, 'Snowflake', and ‘Snow Queen’. Outstanding in woodland gardens or partial shade. Field-grown and container plants available. Hydrangea serrata – ‘Blue Billows’, ‘Tuff Stuff ’, and our favorite ‘Tiny Tuff Stuff ’. These are the hardiest and most reliable of the lace caps. Compact grower, ideal for light shade. Outstanding in a foundation or woodland planting.

Home Improvement
Spotting the signs it’s time for new gutters Home improvement projects range from major additions to simple upgrades like a new front door. While some renovations generate more excitement than others, all make a home safer, more comfortable, or more functional. Gutter replacement may not be as thrilling as a room addition, but it helps prevent roof damage and keeps walkways safe by directing rainwater away from the home. Homeowners can watch for these signs that it’s time to replace their gutters. Cracks or splits: Cracks or splits at the seams of the gutters where two pieces connect is a telltale sign they need to be replaced. Cracks or splits are can slowly lead to separation of gutter pieces, which will lead to leaks. But not all cracks or splits are found at the seams. In fact, some homes feature seamless gutters, which also can crack or split. Regardless of where they're found, cracks or splits are a warning signs of fading gutters. Rust: Rust is never a good sign—whether on a car, garden tools, or gutters. Gutter paint isn’t just decorative; it protects against water damage. When paint flakes, gutters begin to rust. Visible rust or rust flakes are clear signs it’s time to replace your gutters.
Gutters pulling away from the home: Gutters that appear to be pulling away from the home is a sign that they need to be replaced. Gutters are fastened to a home during installation, which ensures they can withstand rain and water. Over time, those fasteners can wear down, ultimately leading to gutters that appear to be pulling away from the home. Though gutters can be refastened, eventually they will need to be replaced. Pooling water: Pooling water in a gutter may just be a sign that gutters need to be cleaned. However, pooling water on the ground directly beneath gutters indicates they're not effectively directing water away from the home. Water damage inside: Homeowners may overlook the interior when checking for gutter damage, but a flooded basement or crawl space can signal a problem. Gutters and downspouts are meant to direct water away from the home, and when they fail, water can pool beneath the foundation, causing damage below. Gutter replacement projects may not be exciting, but new gutters can make a home safer and prolong the life of a roof and other features on a property. FH259132
