Cherry Go Round™ Reblooming Hydrangea
Missouri Goldenrod

Cherry Go Round Reblooming Hydrangea™ is a compact flowering shrub. The deep red flowers will bloom in late spring and last until fall. The mophead-like flowers add multi season interest to your landscape. The petite form is well suited for urban yards and tight spaces.

Flowers grow on old wood which requires only spent flowers and damaged wood to be removed. The Cherry Go Round Reblooming Hydrangea is part of the Bloomin’ Easy® collection.

On the prairies, some customers will plant the Cherry Go Round Reblooming Hydrangea in pots and over winter them in their garage. They need additional winter protection for the flower buds.

Note: Flower colour may be influenced by the soil pH. In more alkaline soils the flowers will emerge more pink whereas those in acidic soils will be a deep purplish red. They prefer slightly acidic soils with a pH of 5.7-6.5.

Missouri Goldenrod is a native perennial wildflower known for its brilliant golden yellow flowers that bloom from late summer to early fall. The flower heads contain hundreds of tiny blossoms that attract a wide variety of pollinators, including bees, butterflies, and other beneficial insects. Fully opened flowers can also be used to make tea. As the season progresses, the flowers give way to fluffy seed heads, providing food for birds.

It can spread readily through its roots and self-seeding, this make Missouri Goldenrod well suited for hard-to-grow areas. This vigorous growth habit makes it an excellent choice for large planting areas, wildflower gardens, naturalized projects, prairie restoration, and erosion control.

As a perennial, it dies back to the crown each winter, it will regrow from the base in the spring. Avoid disturbing the crown during late winter to ensure healthy growth the following season.
