Yes, most garden hydrangeas are perennial shrubs that return each spring, producing new leaves and flower buds on mature stems or fresh growth.
How big can a healthy hydrangea bush grow?
Depending on the specific variety, mature hydrangea bushes can reach heights between three and six feet, spreading out wide with dense green foliage.
