Very informative! I have more than one type of hydrangea in the garden at my new house and I was really unsure of which types they were and whether to prune or not at this time.
So for mophead/big leaf hydrangeas, just leave the dried flowers and not prune them? Also, do I still need to water them in the winter? Thank you for the advance help.
The spent flowers can be removed, but they also provide nice winter interest if left in place. Supplemental watering shouldn’t be necessary during the winter months.
If the plant is young, I recommend pruning it lightly in early spring to shape it. For mature plants, follow the pruning instructions for panicle hydrangeas provided here: ua-cam.com/video/6XUNm3byefE/v-deo.htmlsi=dUd7sVGeNWCRFXfR&t=238

@@Gardeningknowhow what do you mean "provide nice winter interest if left in place"?
@@ainati6121In the winter, the dried leaves are just as beautiful and interesting as the fresh ones when left on the bush?
I have a little hottie so I have to wait until late winter or spring but I don’t know how to prune or if I should even prune
