Endless Summer Hydrangeas

The Plant that has Everyone Talking…

Every few years a plant comes along that takes the garden world by storm. The Endless Summer Hydrangea is one of those plants. This mop head hydrangea has repeat blooms from spring through fall on both current season growth as well as previous year’s growth. The plant is hardy and perfect for everything from foundation planting to container gardening. Blooms cut fresh or dried make great floral decorations for your home. ‘Blushing Bride’ will add life and love to your garden, offering pure white , semi-double florets that gradually mature into a sweet, pink blush, blooming over and over.

The newest Endless Summer addition is ‘Bella Anna’, a remarkable magenta-pink hydrangea that has been a color breakthrough. ‘Bella Anna’ features a strong stem to sup-port the weight of the beautiful blooms. ‘The Original’ offers gardeners creativity by changing its bloom color. By altering the ph balance of soil, the blooms will go from blue to pink . ‘Twist-n-Shout’ is the first re-blooming lacecap hydrangea. Amazing pink or periwinkle flowers, sturdy red stems, and deep green foliage make this re-bloomer very special. It is hardy to zone 4 and heat tolerant to zone 9. Gardeners of all levels will enjoy ‘Twist-n-Shout’.

Visit Superior Garden Center to see all of these varieties in person.

“The landscape at BHC looks wonderful. I received and overheard many compliments on the site work last night at the opening and I let everyone know that the high quality appearance came from your company. You used good quality matched material, detailed the plant and boulder placement well and installed everything per plan with good workmanship and attention to detail. I do not think that any other Mid-Missouri landscape company could have accomplished this project with such detail and quality. The Hospital staff and trustees were very happy with the end product. Thanks for everything that you did to make it a success.”

“Rost Landscaping has worked with Midway Arms for over 20 years. They designed our first employee break area in 1989 and since have provided everything from landscaping design, planting and maintenance. When ‘Midway USA campus’ expanded from one building to two, the continuity of the landscaping design was essential, so we asked Rost to draw the design to coordinate with the work they had done on the first building. That design was then put out for bid. Rost’s bid was chosen and that work was completed. As we have needed repairs, replacements, or minor revisions to the existing plantings, Rost was always chosen to do that work. The third building of the campus is nearing completion and the landscaping design was delivered by Rost this week. Their designers understand our preferred trees and plants and try to incorporate those where possible. They are easy to work with and very professional. I personally hired them to do a major rework of landscaping at my home. The design was fresh and made the home look new. Their people are such a pleasure to work with, that I then hired them to do routing maintenance – providing weeding, watering, and colorful seasonal plantings. I have full faith in their ability to do a good job at a competitive price in a timely manner.”

“Tim, this letter is long overdue but as I look and admire my front and backyard every day, I couldn’t let another day pass by without thanking you for such an incredible job. You, Dale and the Rost Landscaping team far exceeded my expectations. Your team was instrumental in the design of some very intricate landscaping and hardscape, and frankly, it was an incredible experience. From the very first time we met to discuss the project, you were attentive to our needs and provided us plenty of suggestions and direction in the design we had envisioned. You were timely in getting back to us, came in under budget, and to say the least, the front and back yards are spectacular. Your crew worked tirelessly, cleaned up after themselves every day, and the work was completed on time. I would highly recommend Rost Landscaping, and as you know, I am very proud to show the finished project… In a day when service seems to be a lost art, Rost Landscaping has shown that hard work and excellent service is achievable!”

“The professionalism of Owner Tim Rost, Landscape Designer Jake Frink and Landscaping Supervisor Dale Rost was very impressive. Their knowledge, plant quality, communications, and overall service was outstanding and exceeded our high expectations. The landscape design process is deliberate and easy and resulted is a thoughtful and beautiful plan. The installation was even better! There was ongoing dialogue about how to further enhance the plan. The on-site selection and placement of plant and trees was completed in a studied and careful manner. The creative and artful installation of the natural stone steps winding down a long, steep slope among beautiful plants and trees looks awesome. I highly recommend Rost Landscaping to homeowners who will appreciate the art of their fine design and installation.”

“We knew we wanted an outdoor living space, but didn’t know where to begin. A colleague recommended Rost Landscaping, and from the moment we met with the landscape-designer, we have been impressed with their attention to detail and high-quality reliable work. They have created a wonderful space that blends with the historical architecture of the house and enhances the natural beauty of the surrounding trees. The outdoor kitchen area is both sleek and functional, and the entertaining space contains gracious design elements, making it an inviting area to gather with friends and family. We are just thrilled with how the patio turned out, and would highly recommend Rost for their superior landscaping work.”
