Care Tips:-
- Soil: Use well-draining soil that retains moisture. Add organic matter like compost can improve soil structure.
- Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, but not waterlogged. Hydrangeas are thirsty plants, especially during hot spells.
- Fertilizing: Feed with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring and again in early summer. Avoid excessive nitrogen, as it can lead to more foliage and fewer flowers.
- Location: Plant in a spot with morning sun and afternoon shade or dappled sunlight. Too much direct sunlight can scorch the leaves.
- Pruning: After flowering, usually in late summer or early fall, prune. Remove any wasted flower heads, as well as any dead or weak limbs. Take care not to disturb the flower buds that grow on aged wood for the following year.
