This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Endless Summer Hydrangeas. The opinions and text are all mine.
It’s been almost a month since we left our urban farmhouse in Pennsylvania and moved down south to our new country home in Greenville area, South Carolina! I have yet to post a tour of the new home here on the blog and will do that soon! In the meantime, I’d love to have you join me over on my Instagram stories where I share more behind the scenes of the blog. Today I thought it would be fun to share our new front porch and check in on my Endless Summer® Hydrangeas.
I was hoping to bring my entire container garden with me when I moved, but unfortunately they wouldn’t all fit in the space we had available in our vehicles. However, my Bloomstruck® Hydrangeas were a non-negotiable “must bring” item! As a reminder, here is what my plants looked like back in May when I shared my Tips for Endless Summer Hydrangeas Container Planting,
And here is what they look now! Wow! Look at how much they have changed and grown! The beauty of Endless Summer® Hydrangeas is that they change color throughout the season and bring joy to my porch all summer and fall.
The first blooms on my bushes are currently a gorgeous green with hints of blush pink. Paired with sweet potato vine, they make for a showy display at the front door.
And again, here is what they looked like just a few months ago. Aren’t both looks simply gorgeous? You just can’t go wrong with hydrangeas which makes them my all-time favorite flower.
I’ve found that my hydrangeas love a few hours of morning sun followed by mostly shade. I water them everyday as summer here in South Carolina is HOT! I was a little worried about how they’d do down here but so far they seem happy.
You can see that some of my first blooms are beginning to brown, and I was grateful to get a text from Endless Summer® Hydrangea reminding me how to remove old flowers to encourage new growth. Endless Summer® Hydrangea offers a handy text program giving you timely care tips and reminders for your plants. To sign up for it, simply text ENDLESSSUMMER to 73095. The reminders are great–especially for the beginning gardener!
I’ve already been asked several times if I miss my old front porch and the answer is YES! I loved our last home and it always takes awhile to adjust to new things. The front door color of our new home was chosen by the previous owners, and I will probably change it soon to better suit my own taste. For now, it’s such a fun, vibrant blue, that complements my gorgeous hydrangeas and reminds me to experience #LifeInFullBloom! It’s good to embrace new colors and play with new color palettes!
This summer is flying by, and I’m trying to enjoy the little moments while also working hard on getting our family settled in our new home. I’ve been listening to the Endless Summer Pandora playlist while unpacking. To find the station, open Pandora on the web or your mobile device and search for “Artists Rebloomed”; it will be displayed as a Featured Station. Search, click and play.
It’s not too late to pick up some Endless Summer® Hydrangeas for yourself! If you want to find Endless Summer® Hydrangeas in your area, you can click here and enter your zip code for your local retailers.

I love how you incorporated the gorgeous hydrangea into your new home. I just realized I’ve had a front porch on every house I’ve owned it’s my favorite place to be… well behind the beach .lol I have one hydrangea bush that my sweet 20 year old daughter bought me two mothers days ago. Input my coffee grinds on it to keep the lovely blue color. .
I am a huge lover of hydrangea and was just thinking about a beverage decanter like this yesterday. Thank you for the giveaway and your porch looks lovely.
Love the hydrangeas by the front door. I’m obsessed with my potted hydrangeas in my backyard!! I’ve blogged about them more than once 🙂 Maybe too obsessed!
So lovely! It looks great!
Love the blue door paired with Hydrangeas!!
What a lovely porch! So glad our hydrangeas moved happily. Thank you so much for sharing more about Endless Sumer -I had no idea that they had text updates and tips!
I love the porch. I loved your farm house and look forward to seeing your new home tour.
Love your blog and hope you’re enjoying living in SC.
Just gorgeous.
My hydrangea bloomed for the first time in the 4 years we’ve lived in our home.
I loved seeing another shade of blue for your front door!
I can’t believe the difference in a few months. Gorgeous
Beautiful Porch. I love hydrangeas they are my favorite flower.
Your porch is beautiful! The rocking chairs are the perfect touch.
Love your porch.
Beautiful porch. I thought hydrangeas were difficult plants, so glad to find out they are not.
Your porch is beautiful!!
Welcome to the “Promise Land.” 🙂 Greenville is a beautiful area. I moved her over 20 years ago from Mississippi, and I think it is the best! I love following God’s story for you and your family!
Beautiful porch Beth!
Your porch looks gorgeous! I love how you paired the hydrangeas with sweet potato vine.
The plants and the entire porch look great. We just finished painting our wrought iron, 1958 porch and are slowly adding to it.
What a beautiful porch. Plants always make a porch beautiful.
Your new porch looks great. I love the little seating area with the rocking chairs!
LOVE the blue door! But perhaps I love it because it’s close to Tardis blue…;)
Beautiful! I love hearing that you are settling in!
I see you are unpacking some pretty things and getting set up! How exciting and love the hydrangeas 🙂 My great gram had a passion for them and I continue on the tradition. My favs 😉
Loved your old house but anxiously awaiting your post with a tour of your new house!!
Pretty porch. I’ve been talking about adding hydrangeas to the yard forever. I think I may try containers, too.
I can’t wait to get some hydrangeas added to my yard! Love both the color of your old front door and your new one!
I love your new front porch! I’m so glad that you were able to take the hydrangeas with you! Mine go with me every move!
Love Hydrangeas! I live on Cape Cod and they are glorious this summer!
Hydrangeas are my favorite, too!
I love endless summer hydrangeas! They do so well in the hot southern summer.
Love your blog. You give us all wonderful inspiration. Hope you settle well. Moving is a real game changer. Sending best wishes from Perth Westrrn Australia
Can’t wait to see the new place.
Beautiful porch! Looking forward to your new home tour.
