Awesome tour! Incrediball hydrangea owner here. Zone 7a. I have a miniature hedge of three outside my kitchen window and next to my front door. Three full seasons in ground, it is shaded and on irrigation. 5 minutes every 48 hours seems to be enough, 10 during hotter months. The floppy nature has improved a lot but still one of them tends to get downturned in heavy rain, they are not staked, although I did consider that this season. This is the first season I noticed a beautiful fragrance on mine, light almost like perfume, omg the bees could not get enough. I fell in love with them all over again. They are just about 5 feet tall now And about 5 wide. I did a light trim on them in the spring to encourage stronger blooms this year but ended up with smaller blooms which I am grateful for. Next year I may prune just a little more to try and get bigger blooms.
Jenny, thank you so much for this tour of your beautiful hydrangeas! 24:50 what a beautiful shot of your back lawn! I remember when you planted those young evergreens across the back to keep your privacy in case someone ever bought and developed the land behind you and cut down those trees. I hope that never happens. It’s such beautiful, magical sight to see the woods as a background to your beautiful gardens!
It is helpful to see the difference between the hydrangeas. I planted an oak leaf last year and I think it’s in too much sun even though it’s between large oaks. My limelight is huge too & I’ve pruned it up. I also have some of the pink and blue varieties. Love how your garden is turning out!
This was so helpful and informative. Even though I live where it is hot and dry, sharing your experience with all the varieties in the climate you live, gives me much needed perspective. Your garden is so beautiful. It looks peaceful and private. A garden sanctuary!🥰
I’m up nearer to Cleveland but I’m starting to grow very food of these beauties!!! My brothers gave me a grocery store hydrangeas last Mother’s Day and I planted it in the ground and now it’s blooming and gorgeous!! So exciting!!
By far, the best tour of hydrangeas I have seen! So helpful to see these growing in the landscape. I'm going to bookmark this as a great reference for future use! Thanks so much!
Good morning Jenny! We finally have a storm rolling through. It only brought 2 tenths of an inch this far, but it was a downpour and my poor Anabelle hydrangeas are now on the ground. Soccer ball size blooms on them this year and boy do they hold onto the water! I took pictures of them last night because I figured I would have to trim them back after the storm.
Beautiful, I do miss my big garden. My garden now is in pots, sadly where we are now, with trajectory of the sun I can no longer grow any hydrangeas 😔. Thanks Jenny 💋❣️😉
Yes,Jenny. Showing the different hydrangeas was so helpful! I acquired several hydrangeas when we bought this house seven years ago. I don’t know the varieties. I think I have a little lime hydrangea that looks like your limelight hydrangea. I think it is a little lime because it looks just like yours but smaller. It was limbed up but since I moved some hostas that were beneath it because in too much sun, I’ve noticed it is leafing out on the lower wood. It was so helpful to know that I can trim these off to keep its lovely shape and plant low growing plants below again. I’ve learned so much from you over the past couple of years. Thank you for your informative videos!
I learned a lot from this video. You did miss the Zebra Hydrangea. My story on that is for years I have wanted one but it was so expensive online to buy one and some things can be a little sketchy if you don't know the nursery you are buying from. I decided at the last minute one day 2 weeks ago to visit our HyVee (grocery store) garden center and there she was in a one gallon pot 15 inches tall and on sale for 23 dollars. You just never know. Needless to say I'm in love.😍 😊😊🌷🌷
That's awesome! I do love Zebra when it is in bloom, however with our crazy spring weather and late freezes I do not always get very many blooms from it. This year I have 1 bloom that is buried in the foliage. Hopefully next year will be better!
I love the way you put your classes together! Very informative! I wish you would do a short or include the Fuji Waterfall Hydrangea after you moved it! I would like to know or see it! I was always interested in it when it was in your side shade garden! I know it’s not proven winners, but it’s a very beautiful hydrangea! Thank You!
Hi Jenny, as always when you describe each plant’s characteristics I really appreciate how you emphasize the zone and growing conditions that you have. Now I’ve added two more hydrangeas to my list, meaning I need to enlarge my gardens! 🌸❤️🇨🇦
This was fantastic. Loved it, thank you. I’m a bit north of you in mid Maryland. My Little Limes are at same stage as yours. We do get great color change on them here for anyone wondering. Have added some PW Zinfin Dolls, first year blooming so will see. Added this spring PW Limelight Prime and PW Fire Light. Can’t wait to see how they do.
I really needed all of this valuable info on hydrangeas. Thank you! I will be sure to save it in my Garden Playlist. Then, I will be certain to read the article you've linked.
I am so appreciative for all the information / tours you share with all of us home gardeners . Your nursery was a joy to visit and see in person. I am not going to lie , I was a little star struck lol . My husband had a great time talking with Jerry . 😊
Thank you, Jenny ❤️for your honesty in sharing your “messes and successes” which bless those of us, like you, who have a love of gardening, no matter what the knowledge level. Soooooo Helpful!!God bless y’all!! Love from zone 8a.
Hey y'all! I've loved Proven Winners for a very long time & I really enjoyed this video! I'm a new subscriber from Charlotte - soon to be Concord! I'm moving in with my daughter and son-in-law (newlyweds) & the yard NEEDS a lot! I've been taking perennial & hydrangea notes like a crazy person! I've also got to check out a map between us & Creekside! Thanks for sharing so many tips & so much knowledge with us! I used to be a Garden Answer sub/follower; but, I'd rather see what's going on in my own state! Thanks for helping us thru rain AND sun!
I'm sure it wasn't in bloom, but sometimes I feel like I'm the only other person with a Phantom hydrangea and I'm always waiting for you to talk about yours. When it's blooming can you give more info on them? Mine is now in year 4 and last year was wonderful. I'm in Maryland, zone 7, and it's just barely starting its flower buds but looks like it's going to continue to be another good year. Thanks!!
Everyone I know in cooler weather that has Little Lime Punch said it turns brown & latest one was friend nearby. She was told it was the weather but even with changes in weather per season she said it never turned red - went straight to brown.
Good morning, Jenny ☕️ What a great comprehensive explanation of all your Hydrangeas 👏🏻👏🏻 It’s helpful to see the size differences through the years. Well done, Jenny. Have a Blessed Day 😊🐶
That was a great tutorial on the different hydrangeas. I have 3 Little Quick Fires and love them. I’m going to look for Pufferfish next! Thanks so much! Zone 3 🇨🇦
I love all the hydrangeas. I have 3 Limetta Invincible on the eastern side of my house, and they do very well there. I also have 3 Little Limes on the North Side in part Sun/part shade and they are doing great as well. Hydrangea definitely benefit from protect from the full hot sun.
This video came to me at the perfect time. I'm deciding on which hydrangeas to add to my southern garden zone 7a. So far, I have one Bobo and Little Lime, and both are doing very well. I may add a Pufferfish and another Little Lime. Thank you for sharing all the helpful information.
Well done! Now I have the best resource for Hydrangea varieties. Also, thank you for tip on not using pre-emergent around Hydrangeas. That could explain with my Annabels are not flourishing . By the way, we in Delaware are experiencing days of rain. Nearly 3 inches in a single day. We have made up for a six week deficit in three days.
? Will they recover after preemergent? I used preen around my new ones. In preparing the bed we had pulled up a lot of plants prior to planting tidbits and the weeds were loving the tilled soil. One had put on new growth and two were not dead, but I couldn’t tell there was any new growth by our first frost.
Great tour and SO much wonderful information! I bought a very small PW hydrangea on clearance a couple years ago… no tag and it was the only one. Based on your video, I’m really thinking it might be a Quick Fire. Will definitely pay more attention this year as it’s budding up now so hopefully it will be easier to identify.
Wow everything is stunning....🎉❤🎉so gives me hope of transforming a small field into a long time dream. Pikeville TN... southern problems ironing out.❤
We had all the rain and storms right before you here in southeast Alabama and by far, my white wedding hydrangea did the best. It’s in its first year and did not skip a beat and not floppy at all like some of my others. I got a limelight prime this year to see how it varies from limelight here, so I’m anxious for it to bloom so I can see how it does 😍
Thank you, this was most helpful. Full of good info. I have an Annabelle that I had to move about 5 years ago, and I divided it, and this year I have two totally spectacular Annabelle’s. I planted a limelight 2 years ago, and can’t wait to see the blooms this year. I think after watching this, I need to go out and get an oak leaf for a shady spot I need filled! Thank you for this. I love your video’s 🎉😊
Got a couple pufferfish after seeing your previous video-they are doing great and about to bloom in Raleigh- have problems figuring out things that only get a few hours of sun but full late afternoon sun- burned up mountain hydrangeas, katsura pieris, Wolfpack azalea- just learning though and appreciate your info greatly- hoping to get to your nursery in next month or so! She wasn’t kidding-big rain for a week here
Fantastic!!! I have been watching for an update of the line of hydrangeas planted last year in front of the tall evergreens. This was a new bed created last year. I believe the hydrangeas were not PW. Interested as they were not on irrigation and a bit away from the house.
Happy Anniversary Jenny and Jerry! 🥂🍾I hope you have a fantastic weekend. Thanks for the hydrangea tour, this helps me to decide which one I want to add to my garden next. ~Margie🤗💐
Everything is looking so great! I'm especially grateful for the comparison between types (esp. for how they do in the south). @Gardening with Creekside do you recall which blue-green evergreen you all have planted in front of your Limelight Prime (seen at around 21:32)?--is that a small juniper of some sort? I love the mix of color and texture!
Thank you for this. Decided to ditch my Annabelle and get either Incrediball or Little Lime. So undecided. Tired of trying to keep Annabelle upright though I do love her.
Loving all of my hydrangeas that I've purchased from you. Never was successful with hydrangeas until now. Love sitting in my living room and being able to see my Gatsby Gals (I have 3 of them). Also have the Invicibelle Mini Mauvette and Firelight Tidbit, which is definitely going to be bigger than 3 x 3. And I keep buying more. Just purchased a Let's Dance Arriba that I found on clearance at Lowe's (it wasn't even with in the clearance section).
If I had to guess I’ve got at least a dozen different hydrangea varieties in the garden. I can attest to the fact that panicles do the full Sun & heat without missing a beat. Zone 8A/B in Brunswick Cty. Pull those chamber biters before they take over your beds.
I wish I could send you a photo of my quick fire hydrangea. I planted it at the corner of my porch. It receives sun from Noon to about 3pm. My porch is four foot off the ground and the hydrangea almost touches my spouting. It’s well over 8 feet in width. Since my porch ceiling is 7 feet and the floor 4 feet off the ground I’d say it’s a good 9 feet in height. She is just loaded this year! I wish I knew how to trim on her in the early years. I also wish I would have stepped her out about 3 feet more from the porch. Because I believe she would be 10’ by 10’ and just as happy as a clam. Making and absolutely beautiful presentation of herself standing alone. I planted her in 2011. I also had planted a Annabelle along my driveway. Just one plant. And it spread and covers the entire length of a 20 foot corner of the flower bed that runs about 100 feet along the property line down the side of my driveway. It covers a great swath of garden approximately 20 feet long and 8 feet wide. She went from a one plant habit to a bunch of individual sticks that sprout up every year. In the beginning the follow spring I had pulled out some of those twig sprouts.. Then realized one had a small hydrangea leaf on it. So I let them go. So glad I did. Some of the flowers get as big as basket balls. So beautiful. I have to admit my three other hydrangea’s struggled then I started watching Laura then she introduced you on her video and through watching I realized I need to cut them back. Now….they are beautiful. I also planted a Nikki blue hydrangea that sent out a runner and moved itself forward in my back flower bed. I though oh great that is going to be awesome another plant. Then the next spring I noticed that I could wiggle the base of the older plant and it just pulled out of the ground. I was sick about it. Then as spring moved on I realized the shoot was growing with vigor. It actually moved itself about 2 feet forward and has never done this again!!!!! My quick fire has also sent out a shoot last summer and I have a small new plant and it will bloom this year. I am going to move that one since it has sprouted up very close to the porch lattice. It can not stay in its spot from the vigor of the parent plant. Which by the way is like a small tree or and over grown rhododendron habit. I’m so glad Laura introduced you on her platform. I’ve learned so much from you both. However, I’m your on my side of the country. My growing zone is a 6b. Therefore, I can benefit from you both. So fun. Thank you Jenny! I can not express how much I have learned from you! I just finished a huge renovation in my house and have been on the struggle bus to put my home back together that my yard and gardens have suffered. I can’t wait to make some changes out in my front yard and move some plants from around my deck. But, I need fill and loam. Because of your berms I have a whole new plan. When I had my driveway replaced last fall I made them place the base they dug out and fill an area that has just been waiting for me to loam up. Now my mind is filled with ideas… That sprouted quick fire will find its new home there with more benefits than its parent. Again, thank you!
Can we ever have enough hydrangeas? No way ❤
I agree!

Jenny,
Next, we need a tour of your Mama's stunning hydrangeas! 😊
Coming your way Monday morning 🥰
I loved this! Now I realize, I NEED more hydrangeas! We are a mostly sun garden, so thanks for the info!
Wow! I am in awe at your massive Limelight. The trunk was amazing. ❤ Panicle Hydrangeas are definitely one of my favorites.
Hello Amanda
How are you doing today?
This was so helpful and informative. Even though I live where it is hot and dry, sharing your experience with all the varieties in the climate you live, gives me much needed perspective. Your garden is so beautiful. It looks peaceful and private. A garden sanctuary!🥰
Hello dear
How are you doing today?
Very helpful video! Thank you! Have a great day!🌹🌺🌻🌾🌞🌸
Thank you! You too!
Perfect timing for Hydrangeas tour for me I’m in Ohio , along Ohio river. Zone 6a. Ready to plant something for huge impact!
Have fun!
I’m up nearer to Cleveland but I’m starting to grow very food of these beauties!!! My brothers gave me a grocery store hydrangeas last Mother’s Day and I planted it in the ground and now it’s blooming and gorgeous!! So exciting!!
By far, the best tour of hydrangeas I have seen! So helpful to see these growing in the landscape. I'm going to bookmark this as a great reference for future use! Thanks so much!
Hello Anne
How are you doing today?
My favorite plant , I want every one of them !!
Good morning Jenny! We finally have a storm rolling through. It only brought 2 tenths of an inch this far, but it was a downpour and my poor Anabelle hydrangeas are now on the ground. Soccer ball size blooms on them this year and boy do they hold onto the water! I took pictures of them last night because I figured I would have to trim them back after the storm.
Thanks so much, exactly the video i needed in my life, this very moment. 🎉
I really appreciate how well you described each type of hydrangea. Your property looks amazing!!
Jenny, I was waiting for the update on you phantom hedge. I' m growing them as well.
Beautiful, I do miss my big garden. My garden now is in pots, sadly where we are now, with trajectory of the sun I can no longer grow any hydrangeas 😔. Thanks Jenny 💋❣️😉
Me too, I have no luck with hydrangeas in pots! We have limelights on a hill that I can’t reach!
Love love love this video. This is the first time seeing you. I have many of the hydrangeas you have here. Absolutely gorgeous! ❤
Welcome! We hope you subscribe so you can get more content like this in the future 😊

Thank you Jenny. I think I'm getting hydrangea fever! As you are going through the descriptions, I'm thinking of where I could "tuck" some in. 😂
I too suffer from that condition 😉😂
Beautiful hydrangeas. Annabelle smooth hydrangea will be great for my garden.
I learned a lot from this video. You did miss the Zebra Hydrangea. My story on that is for years I have wanted one but it was so expensive online to buy one and some things can be a little sketchy if you don't know the nursery you are buying from.

Wow, Jenny! Hydrangea Heaven! What a beautiful tour!🤍
Awesome tour, saving it to my playlist for easy access. Thanks Jenny and editing crew!
This was fantastic. Loved it, thank you. I’m a bit north of you in mid Maryland. My Little Limes are at same stage as yours. We do get great color change on them here for anyone wondering.

The best lesson on hydrangeas in the south. Thank you so much!
Beautiful!!!!! Love hydrangeas
This was so informative and helpful. I don’t have a garden, but I love watching your videos. Your yard is splendid and so peaceful to look at.
Great information 🎉
Hello dear

This was absolutely informative and entertaining, thanks for the vast knowledge and information you gave us.
Glad it was helpful!
Love the hydrangea info.. Thank you!!🌸
All the hydrangeas look beautiful! Love it❤
Wonderful information! I am redoing almost my whole landscape! Can’t wait to try lots of these! Thank you!!! I am a southern gardener too.
Excellent video! Very informative
Loved this video Jenny, great information as always ♥️
Glad you liked it!!
Wow, my Alice is full of blooms up here in 6b.
I love hydrangeas!! Loved seeing yours!! TFS! Blessings!♥️♥️🙏🙏
Wonderful show!
Good morning, Jenny ☕️ What a great comprehensive explanation of all your Hydrangeas 👏🏻👏🏻 It’s helpful to see the size differences through the years. Well done, Jenny. Have a Blessed Day 😊🐶
There all so beautiful I love my Oak leaf Hydrangea.
Hi dear ! Thank you for this helpful video, I enjoyed watching it.
Oh my Goodness so information Thank You! Always watch you even tho I am from Ohio!! Love Ya!! Take care! ❤️👍🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
This was an amazing showing! I learned so much! Beautiful hydrangeas ❤️ Thank you
Thank you for this video ❤
Ugh! My hydrangeas got floppy with all of the rain that we had this past week. Thank you for this video!
My limelight prime in mostly sun in just one year are massive and full of blooms. I’m amazed. And they are not flopping after five days of heavy rain.
I love my limelights! I have 12 in full sun and they do amazingly for me.
I have found that putting peony cages over my Annabelle hydrangeas helps keep them from flopping!
Hey Jenny, I loved the hydrangeas video. Thanks!
Thanks for sharing this as I am slowly adding hydrangeas to my landscape. My luck is definitely with panicles.
Love u and your channel! You are down to earth!😊
That was a great tutorial on the different hydrangeas. I have 3 Little Quick Fires and love them. I’m going to look for Pufferfish next! Thanks so much! Zone 3 🇨🇦
Very informative. Beautiful Hydrangeas! Thanks for sharing! Happy planting!

She wasn’t kidding-big rain for a week here
Hi. I really appreciate all your work and approach.

Hello Angela
How are you doing today?
Good morning, Jenny! I would love to see a video about hydrangeas for zone 9.
Janey is a great resource for you as she is a zone 9b. Check out her channel youtube.com/@DigPlantWaterRepeat
Thanks Jenny, this was very informative. After your presentation, I plan to purchase a few Little Lime Punch.
Good morning 🐅
Morning!
Happy Anniversary Jenny and Jerry! 🥂🍾I hope you have a fantastic weekend. Thanks for the hydrangea tour, this helps me to decide which one I want to add to my garden next. ~Margie🤗💐
Smooth hydrangeas and oakleaf hydrangeas are also native to NC. Hense the reason they grow so well there.
Thank you! So wonderful 😊
Everything is looking so great! I'm especially grateful for the comparison between types (esp. for how they do in the south). @Gardening with Creekside do you recall which blue-green evergreen you all have planted in front of your Limelight Prime (seen at around 21:32)?--is that a small juniper of some sort?

Love this video, planning to buy a Hydrangea for my garden. Thanks a lot, will have to check out what is available near me (Aust.).
Thanks for all the valuable information. 👍
Thank you for this. Decided to ditch my Annabelle and get either Incrediball or Little Lime. So undecided. Tired of trying to keep Annabelle upright though I do love her.
Love this👍💞thank you jenny for sharing very informative. all are beautiful your tips on where &when to prune are priceless.👋🐝⛅

I love this video. Beautiful beautiful gardens !!

Thanks Jenny. I love your videos. Take care.🥰
Thanks Jenny.
I wish I could send you a photo of my quick fire hydrangea. I planted it at the corner of my porch. It receives sun from Noon to about 3pm. My porch is four foot off the ground and the hydrangea almost touches my spouting. It’s well over 8 feet in width. Since my porch ceiling is 7 feet and the floor 4 feet off the ground I’d say it’s a good 9 feet in height. She is just loaded this year! I wish I knew how to trim on her in the early years. I also wish I would have stepped her out about 3 feet more from the porch. Because I believe she would be 10’ by 10’ and just as happy as a clam. Making and absolutely beautiful presentation of herself standing alone. I planted her in 2011. I also had planted a Annabelle along my driveway. Just one plant. And it spread and covers the entire length of a 20 foot corner of the flower bed that runs about 100 feet along the property line down the side of my driveway. It covers a great swath of garden approximately 20 feet long and 8 feet wide. She went from a one plant habit to a bunch of individual sticks that sprout up every year. In the beginning the follow spring I had pulled out some of those twig sprouts.. Then realized one had a small hydrangea leaf on it. So I let them go. So glad I did. Some of the flowers get as big as basket balls. So beautiful. I have to admit my three other hydrangea’s struggled then I started watching Laura then she introduced you on her video and through watching I realized I need to cut them back. Now….they are beautiful. I also planted a Nikki blue hydrangea that sent out a runner and moved itself forward in my back flower bed. I though oh great that is going to be awesome another plant. Then the next spring I noticed that I could wiggle the base of the older plant and it just pulled out of the ground. I was sick about it. Then as spring moved on I realized the shoot was growing with vigor. It actually moved itself about 2 feet forward and has never done this again!!!!! My quick fire has also sent out a shoot last summer and I have a small new plant and it will bloom this year. I am going to move that one since it has sprouted up very close to the porch lattice. It can not stay in its spot from the vigor of the parent plant. Which by the way is like a small tree or and over grown rhododendron habit.
I’m so glad Laura introduced you on her platform. I’ve learned so much from you both. However, I’m your on my side of the country. My growing zone is a 6b. Therefore, I can benefit from you both. So fun. Thank you Jenny! I can not express how much I have learned from you!
I just finished a huge renovation in my house and have been on the struggle bus to put my home back together that my yard and gardens have suffered. I can’t wait to make some changes out in my front yard and move some plants from around my deck. But, I need fill and loam. Because of your berms I have a whole new plan. When I had my driveway replaced last fall I made them place the base they dug out and fill an area that has just been waiting for me to loam up. Now my mind is filled with ideas… That sprouted quick fire will find its new home there with more benefits than its parent.
Again, thank you!
Thanks Jenny,great info
