    Good old reliable hydrangeas. Here we are 4b and blue hydrangeas are not for our climates. Harsh winters make them a really big challenge. If not impossible.
    But for others they produce flowers year after year and with almost no maintenance. And these flowers last for months, from endjuly until frosts even later. When they are covered by snow.
    The flowers turn gradually from creamy white to a beautiful pink. I love hydrangeas because they are essentially the only shrub that blooms in late summer.

    Hi! I loved this, very informative. However, there was no mention of the oak leaf hydrangea, which I planted this spring. I got lovely blooms but they went to bronze within a month. The leaves are dying back now as it’s end of October, though that die back started in September. I think this plant goes dormant in winter, though our CA winter is mild. Would appreciate your insights!

      We have an oak-leaf hydrangea…..the leaves turn red in winter and seem to stay until almost springtime. I haven’t pruned it yet, so would also be interested to know when & how 🙂

    So when do we prune the macrophylla hydrangeas? Late Fall or Winter? Not Spring, right? I live in Northern California in the central valley. thanks

      Hey James, here in the UK we prune in about March time, but I'll ask Martin what differences there might be in a milder climate like yours -Sean

    • @PotsTrowels
      @PotsTrowels  2 роки тому +2

      Hey Barbara, sorry for the delayed response! - Pruning is exactly the same and because your weather is milder, you can prune in late winter, before new growth starts to open up - I hope this helps and thanks ever so much for your support! Keep Gardening!

    great video thank you! most thorough one ive watched so far on youtube and nice clear shots of exactly where to cut on the stem - much appreciated. One question - I live in Sydney and my hydrangea macrophylla still has most of its leaves (currently middle of winter here)...should I still prune the same way?

    • @PotsTrowels
      @PotsTrowels  Рік тому +1

      Hi, you should be able to prune in the same way and you can do it in late winter as I’m sure frost won’t be a problem for you in Sydney. Martin

    Thank you so much for this very informative video. I have purchased the mophead Hydrangea about 2 weeks ago and its currenlty blooming. Can i deadhead it should the flowers finish blossoming within jext few weeks with a hope it will blossom again this year or should i now leave it in peace and deadhead in spring next year? Thank you.

    • @PotsTrowels

      It will only have one main flush of blooms a year, so no need to deadhead until spring. Martin

    When you trimmed the Paniculata down to old wood, you stated it would grow new wood from “these buds”, but all I saw were the tops of the old wood where you snipped back to. Where were the buds? Were those cut stems the buds, you mean?

    • @PotsTrowels
      @PotsTrowels  Рік тому

      The buds would be very small & dormant, but once you prune, they will start to grow in spring. Martin

I would love to cut about 5 stems to dry them but do not want to compromise next years growth and flowering. Is it ok to cut them as described?
