I absolutely love my endless summer hydrangeas. I know people have issues with them, but I have never had issues with them. Once you know how to prune them, you can't mess them up.
Helped me a lot. My big leaf hydrangea for last 2 yrs only had 1 bloom in same place. This year I'll cover w burlap or something. Your info was great. I'm in zone 6b
Great video Michelle! I recently have fallen in love with these plants and have been experimenting with them for only two years. I can't tell you how giddy I get when I see those wonderful cluster of flower buds! I garden in Michigan (sort of your neighbor). Love your channel!
I have a big leaf, thank you so much, this video really was a big help. I've had my hydrangea for about 20 years. It got bit by a really late frost this spring and it didnt bloom at all. But it's alive and all greened up. I'll just have to wait til next year. It has blue, pink, purple, white and green blooms on it when it blooms, great big round balls. I just love it. I love all your video's. Thank you for all the great information you always give us. I'm in zone 6. NE Oklahoma.
Great video, so much information! I have 3 Little Lime's, love them! Also have a Bobo that I planted in a container and she's doing great. Beautiful blooms right now in Zone 8b.
I have ONE little quick fire. My favorite. I would have more, but I have loads of deer that pass through and I have to protect it. So, one is enough of a challenge for me. I love that it's a panicle, but has a more open lacy bloom similar to mountain hydrangea. Just gorgeous.
You put this out on the day I was wondering how to prune my standard paniculate. After watching, I believe I am to prune it in the late Winter after the last frost? The leader cracked off a couple of years ago, so I'm not sure how tall it will get, but it is spreading out wonderfully. I water it everyday for 30 min with a drip hose. It seems to love that. It is in clay soil, but that doesn't seem to bother it at all. I planted it with Espoma Starter fertilizer and I have been using Plant Tone since them. It is called Strawberry Parfait, but it doesn't get the blended coloring it was supposed to be. It does get a very pretty baby pink so I am happy with that. When I got it originally, the tag said sun to part sun. So I planted it where it would be sun in the morning and shade in the afternoon. It didn't do well, so after two/three years, I moved it to full sun and that is what it needed. I also didn't realize how much water it really wanted. So now that it is in full sun and irrigation, it's doing well. Thanks for all of the info on these types of plants. You really helped me as I want to add more to my backyard!
I really enjoy your videos, I bet you're a great friend :) I put two of the let's dance in the completely wrong full sun place and they really need to be moved, a quickfire however is on it's 1st season in the perfect location that I'm super excited about.
Very thorough info. I love hydrangeas and have many of the ones you mentioned. Including Endless Summer which UNTIL this year, hadn’t bloomed in many years. I am now enlightened that it is likely the late frosts that we usually get in the spring! I thought the lack of flowers was from too much cutting back (so I didn’t prune as hard this past spring and ended up with loads of gorgeous blooms this summer for the first time in years! (I thought I got blooms from not cutting back but maybe we had a warmer spring this year?)… we are zone 4. So if it’s from cold/frost then I should ‘cover’ them?? But how? Can you advise? I have a hedge of them. Thank you!
I don't know how good that would be....I just plant mine right in the ground. I can show that in one of my next videos though, probably the front garden clean-up.
I have little quick fire in a pot. Great flower to use in a flower arrangement. Just planted 2 hydrangea paniculata PANDORA. Not a proven winner. Don't know who grew them, but so far they look like a small lime light. Not much info out there. Hope you get even more hydrangeas from all growers as you give detailed instructions which is very helpful. Thank you!
Thanks for this great info! I have limelights and mop heads and love them all :) do you know of a panicle that can take some shade (dappled sun)? looking for hydrangea that doesn’t require too much water that will be in semi shade. I’m in 8B. So happy to find your channel!
What kind of fertilizer do you use on this and peony mine is just setting there not growing this lady I have been supporting ask about a fertilizer she told me to read a book I have learned so much from you.Judy
When I bought my first hydrangea it was a big leaf blue one. That was 4 or 5 years ago. It has only gotten only a little over foot and a half tall. Nice green leaves no flowers yet. Ugh. I did notice about three woody stems may have been cut off. I know we have a few rabbits running around. Do rabbits eat hydrangeas? The plant is located next to our deck in a shady area. I live in a zone 6. I've never even seen any buds on it. Do you think frost is to blame. Should I move it? I'm at my wits end. I've fertilized it too.
If your beaf leaf hydrangea buds get nipped by frost, you will lose those flowers. If your hydrangea does not have good reblooming properties, you will still not get flowers. Yes, rabbits can eat them, along with other animals. And moving it might or might not solve your problem.

If you plant garlic cloves near the plants that attract deer, they won't return.

Coffee grounds from Starbucks for free will turn the big leaf hydrangea blue, I sprinkle around the plant on top of soil.
This was so informative. Thank you❤

You can try to cover them. They bloom on both old and new wood
Do you know anything about Mountain Snow Pieris? If so can you talk about them. I am in zone 7..thanks...love your channel!
I can’t have enough! But my yard has its limits🤣
I get it.....
Do you ever propagate any of your different varieties of hydrangeas? If so, can you do a video?
No.
Can you do a video on planting a hydrangea in clay soil? Please from Oklahoma.
I don't know how good that would be....I just plant mine right in the ground. I can show that in one of my next videos though, probably the front garden clean-up.
Thank you so much...😊

It is a new variety created by the HBA. (Hydrangea Breeder Association)

Not that I know of, most of those want sun.
What kind of fertilizer do you use on this and peony mine is just setting there not growing this lady I have been supporting ask about a fertilizer she told me to read a book I have learned so much from you.Judy
I use the fertilome garden fertilizer in the spring. I usually only do 1 application.

How do you fertilize yours are what of fertilizer you use Judy I’m just set there and the leave comes off
I feed with an all purpose fertilizer once in the spring.
all my favourites are covered but you forgot about climbing hydrangeas
I didn't forget. This video was just for shrubs 😀

Well, aren't I just the cheer fairy this morning.....
What is the fastest growing Hydrangea for zone 5b. I want them tall and wide. Sunny location.
Probably any of the paniculata hydrangeas. Pick one that fits the size you are looking for.
What kind of hydrangea can be grown in zone 9b?
