@GentleSaguaro Iβve tried cutting the dead flowers and dead wood and there still not blooming and if I do get a flower or 2 there hidden under the leaves . A friend has one and she said she cuts the whole plant down in the fall and it does flower following year. If the plant didnβt have sentimental memories I would give up and fight it up.
@FamousMangeao I planted mine on the north side of the house theyβre not blooming as well as they did the first year. Iβm thinking about moving them there very full. οΏΌ
I wouldnβt cut it down to the ground. I prune mine (right above the bud) in early Spring every year. I also fertilize mine at least once a month during the growing season. Hydrangea typically are heavy feeders, so I recommend a 10-10-10 fertilizer (at least once a month, maybe even every 3 weeks) during their growing season. Happy gardening. π§βπΎ ππΈ
@FamousMangeao maybe sheβs just not in a happy spot? Mine are on the east and north side of my house and they are doing fantastic with the blooms.
