Fertilizing
Hydrangea shrub feed every four weeks spring through early summer
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 propagate by hardwood cuttings in winter
Growing
Grow in moisture-retentive, fertile, humus-rich, well-drained soil in sun or partial shade with shelter from cold drying winds
