Meet the hydrangea that knows how to steal the show. Let's Dance Hot Stepper™ Hydrangea bursts into summer with striking, dome-shaped blooms drenched in deep pink and accented with a crisp white star at the center. Each blossom feels like a spotlight moment, glowing against rich green foliage and calling pollinators to the dance floor.
This reblooming Hydrangea hybrid doesn't just perform—it performs consistently, even if spring frost nips at its tips or a gardener gets a little too ambitious with pruning shears. Thanks to its ability to flower on both old and new wood, Let's Dance Hot Stepper™ Hydrangea keeps producing fresh blooms from early summer well into fall. Strong stems hold each blossom high, ensuring they remain pristine even in rain, wind, or heat.
Compact, elegant, and incredibly floriferous, this hydrangea fits beautifully into borders, foundation plantings, and mixed garden beds. Its reliable bloom production, dense habit, and long flowering window make it a favorite for modern landscapes where color, structure, and low-maintenance performance are essential. If your garden needs a pop of continuous color and a plant that brings its A-game every season, Let's Dance Hot Stepper™ Hydrangea is ready for center stage.

LET'S DANCE HOT STEPPER™ HYDRANGEA Homeowner Growing & Maintenance Tips
- Recommended Soil:
- Prefers moist, well-drained soil rich in organic matter.
- Soil pH influences color: acidic soils may shift blooms toward lavender-purple.
- Mulch helps preserve moisture and regulate soil temperature.
- Sun Exposure:
- Best in part sun to part shade.
- Morning sun with afternoon shade produces the healthiest growth.
- Avoid intense, full-day sun in hotter climates to prevent leaf scorch.
- Irrigation Needs:
- Keep soil consistently moist, especially during peak summer heat.
- Water deeply 1–2 times per week depending on weather.
- May require more frequent watering in hot conditions.
- Feeding & Nutrients:
- Apply a slow-release, balanced fertilizer in spring.
- Supplemental feeding midseason encourages stronger reblooming.
- Consider aluminum sulfate or garden lime if adjusting color preference.
- Pruning & Maintenance:
- Minimal pruning needed; shape lightly in late winter or early spring.
- Remove only dead or damaged stems—blooming occurs on old and new wood.
- After flowering, you may deadhead to maintain a tidy appearance.
- Protect roots with mulch in colder climates.
