{"product_id":"soeur-therese-hydrangea","title":"Sister Theresa Hydrangea","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eSister Theresa (Soeur Thérèse) is a classic French bigleaf hydrangea with a distinctly refined character. Named after the beloved French saint, this elegant variety produces large, full mophead flower heads in pure white that age gracefully through the season, developing soft blush-pink tones as the blooms mature — a gentle color evolution that adds warmth and depth to the display without ever losing its essential elegance. The effect is crisp, sophisticated, and quietly beautiful, lending a timeless garden-party charm to borders and partially shaded spots where few other shrubs perform as graciously.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eLike all macrophylla hydrangeas, Soeur Thérèse prefers a sheltered spot with morning sun and afternoon shade, and blooms on old wood, so protecting stems through winter is the key to a reliable flower display. In the right location it is a genuinely rewarding shrub — long-lived, increasingly floriferous with age, and capable of producing an exceptionally beautiful late spring and early summer display year after year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHighlights:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003ePure white blooms with exceptional color clarity that holds well through the season\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eElegant, refined character — a natural fit for cottage, French, and formal garden styles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eLarge, showy flower heads make a strong visual impact in partially shaded spots\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eOutstanding cut flower — fresh or dried\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eDeer resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eLong-lived and increasingly floriferous with age\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrowing Info:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardiness:\u003c\/strong\u003e USDA Zones 6–9\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMature Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4–5 ft. tall, 4–5 ft. wide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSun:\u003c\/strong\u003e Part shade; morning sun with afternoon shade is ideal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moist, humus-rich, well-drained\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderate to high; consistent moisture is important\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTip:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blooms on old wood — protect stems through winter by avoiding hard pruning in fall; remove only dead wood in early spring after new growth emerges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The GreenHouse","offers":[{"title":"#1","offer_id":48917107310820,"sku":"74319A","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1038\/5352\/files\/Soeur_Therese_Hydrangea.jpg?v=1783048666","url":"https:\/\/www.thegreenhousepnw.com\/products\/soeur-therese-hydrangea","provider":"The Greenhouse","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
