Watering

Keep soil consistently moist, especially in warm weather

Fertilizing

Hydrangea feed in spring and again early summer

Pruning

Little pruning is needed. Remove diseased, damaged, crowded or crossing shoots and unwanted growth. Timing depends on the plant: generally late winter or early spring; plants prone to bleeding and deciduous magnolias need different timing, and deciduous azaleas and lilacs are pruned after flowering.

Propagation

Propagate by softwood cuttings in early summer or hardwood cuttings in winter

Growing

Grow in fertile, humus-rich, moist but well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade with shelter from cold drying winds. See shrubby hydrangea cultivation for more detailed advice
