All Things Hydrangeas

Hydrangeas are the superior shrub for long-lasting blooms, in shade or sun! A classic garden staple that many people remember from their childhood... today we are falling in love with them all over again. The good news is that we can now grow hydrangeas our grandmothers never even dreamed of. Join our very own Trevor Cameron, C.P.H. (aka expert horticulturist), for this fun class on everything you'll want to know to grow gorgeous hydrangeas. We'll talk about different varieties (especially BRAND NEW varieties), proper placement, watering, care and how to get stunning color & then change it! (The class handout can be found on our website, www.sunnysidenursery.net/classes)

I occasionally work in a flower shop. During the prom/Mother’s Day season I pick up some hydrangea trims (stems). I put them in some water and they started to leaf, but no roots. Do I need to be more patient for roots? What do I do?

Try dipping the stems in some rooting hormone first, this will encourage your cuttings to develop root system. Plugging them in a well drained organic potting soil in small pots (like 1 gallon) will allow them to root in a few months and then they can be planted.
