Fertilizing
Acidic hydrangea feed monthly spring and early summer months
Pruning
Use the method for the hydrangea type: remove faded mophead flowers to the first healthy bud pair; paniculata and arborescens may have last year's stems shortened to healthy bud pairs. Climbing hydrangeas need overlong shoots trimmed after flowering. Most types are pruned in late winter or early spring; climbing hydrangeas are pruned after flowering in summer.
Propagation
Propagate by softwood cuttings in early summer or hardwood cuttings in winter
Growing
Best grown in moist but well-drained soil in part shade although tolerant of sun if soil remains moist. See shrubby hydrangea cultivation for more detailed advice
