Wedding Gown bigleaf hydrangea captured by @nancyjondra. She shares about photographing the garden at night:

White flowers catch even the tiniest bit of light, showing up long after darker blooms have merged into the moody dusk. There are many outstanding whites to choose from for mid- and late summer: various hydrangeas, for instance, such as the big, ball-shaped blooms of smooth hydrangea (Hydrangea arborescens), the cone-shaped clusters of oakleaf hydrangea (H. quercifolia), and the lacy heads of Wedding Gown bigleaf hydrangea (H. macrophylla ‘Dancing Snow’).

For perennials, think of pristine ‘David’ summer phlox (Phlox paniculata), spiky Culver’s root (Veronicastrum virginicum), and bold ‘Becky’ Shasta daisy (Leucanthemum x superbum), to name just a few options. From the @jerryfritzgarden blog.
