I’ve been studying up on hydrangeas for several years now, and I can say, this is, hands down, the most thorough information on growing hydrangeas that I’ve ever come across. Thank you so much and many blessings to you and yours. 🙏

@@OverdevestNurseries LOVELY ILIKE HOW YOU CARE FOR THOSE HYDRANGES FLOWERS.
My grandmother had some of the largest, most beautiful Hydrangeas. They were planted on the North side of her home. She never did anything special with these beautiful plants. It's amazing how carefree folks were back then, yet had the most beautiful flower gardens.
Thank you, that's nice to hear. You are very fortunate to have had the experience of
watching your grandmother excel (with apparent ease) in her garden.
Finding the right plants for our neighborhoods in our Mid-Atlantic and Northeastern region is what we what we, and our partnering garden centers: grownbyoverdevest.com/retail-locator/ strive to do all the time.
That's why the plants we grow here (locally) are trialed and tested (and reviewed) all the time, and together with the experts at the garden centers we try to make sure they are the BEST selections that are RIGHT for your local neighborhood. 😊👍👏
Clearly, your grandmother had the right selections for her area and that's why they performed so well.
Now, all you have to do....., is try to replicate her triumphs and be able (with perhaps our help) to enjoy having big, beautiful Hydrangeas again in your life! 😉😊💚

Because that’s where you will discover all sorts of beautiful, tried and true and cutting edge, top performing selections.
I don't remember my parents spending a dime to have a beautiful garden, now everything costs an arm and a leg and the results are still not that great. A neighbour brought a hydrangea cutting from California to Kerala and it was surprising to see this plant, carelessly put near her doorstep in full sunlight shoot up and bloom without any magic treatment with huge blooms
This channel deserves a lot more subscribers. Very knowledgeable and personable.
Thank you, that's very kind of you to say so.

Thank you, David! You are great gardener!
Thank you, you are very welcome. There's a whole lifetime of doing what I love, so it is great that you are appreciating our efforts.
Thank you for your knowledge of the hydrangea. I learned a lot about pruning that I didn’t know. Growing up they were my mom’s favorite. We lived in coal country and she used the coal ash to enhance the color. It made an intense blue and neighbor’s enjoyed the beauty as well as our family.
Your videos are so helpful to a garden novice like me! Thank you so much!

I am also from North England. I am very old and had a girl-friend who was a land-girl in the war time. These girls grew food for the nation and were experts. She had a magnificent garden which bloomed nearly all the year round and her secret was . If a plant did not perform Schlep it out and Schlog it !
Wow, that's fantastic and thank you for telling us. Those "land girls" were largely unsung heroines, often plucked from towns and cities, they adapted to rural, agricultural life and made a huge contribution to the war effort. We pretty much have the same ideology, If a variety is not able to perform on its own, then it is "yanked" form our production schedules.
My mother was a land-girl in the war time, in Northumberland🤗 she was no gardener though🤣
Hi Robert, best wishes to you and I hope you can stay warm and secure during this winter. My Mother was also in the land army in the latter part of the war (born in ‘24) down here in Kent. She married my Dad and they ran a market garden in Ramsgate where I grew up. Happy memories! (I would be interested if anyone still living remembers them!) - Stay well my friend!🙏
@@heddaszczepanski9210 My mother was entertaining a Canadian soldier in Edinburgh Scotland.Thats how she got my brother and became an unwilling Canadian.😂
My family lives in the US and were not as affected by the wars, but were by the Great Depression. My gramma and grandpa were born in 1917 and 1903 respectively, and I was raised by them in the 1970s and 80s and learned a lot about how to put by, and care for crops, as well as cows.
As for hydrangeas, the one mop head blue one by the side of the 3 story house became her favorite. She had grown it for beauty, to take to all of the family graves on Memorial Day (originally Decoration Day). But one day she was alone, elderly, and painting the house by herself on a ladder that in soft soil moved and she fell. While she had Padget’s and bowed legs, which means she should have had all her bone shatter, she walked away hobbling with just bruises and pain and broke nothing but the bush that cushioned her fall! It split down the center stalk, but it lived!!
This year I bought a pink Summer Crush hydrangea to put into a planter in memory of her, and will cut the flowers for Mother’s Day in may and put onto her and grandpa’s grave.
So much great information. Thank you!

Thank You David
An old gardener too.
Thanks
Thank you. Discovered a neat quotation that was attributed to the great Karl Foerster. He apparently, said when asked what he would like to do in the next life? That "he would like to come back as a gardener because there was too much to achieve in one lifetime"!
Best educational hydrangea video on RUclips. Thank you David for making these videos informative and fun. I’ve had several Aaaa-Haaa a-ha moments watching them. These are definitely worthy of my thumbs up and sharing!

Using fall leaves as insulation is such an amazing idea! 💡
Yes, it works great. Just remember to put in some bait because they also provide a nice warm place for little rodents and voles to move into too.

So true how the coastal locations have stunning blooms.
Thank you.
They revel in those conditions, which of course makes the rest of us envious🥹.
That's why the development of the remontant ones, is so important, now those of us that want to enjoy them in land in colder localities have a chance to do so😊😁👍💚

I moved into a house that had a well established mop head style. I only deadhead just below the dead flower. This plant had pink flowers so I’ve added the color changing pellets and the last few years they have become a nice purple though I’m trying for the blue. My plant faces almost due east till about 12-1p. I have a nice amount of buds on it the bush this year. I’m in Camden County, NJ
Thank you, and well done getting your plant to change color. When you think about it, it is incredible and quite unique how we can alter the color of these mophead types by adjusting the soil. To my knowledge, no other plant type has this capability which is why it makes it so amazing. Just bear in mind that the color hues are determined also by the individual variety. So, if you desire blue, then you will have to buy another variety....
Light pink colored ones will be shades of sky or baby blue, whereas deeper pink ones (like your plant) will take on deeper shades of dark blue or purples. Here's a link to that will help you find the locations of the partnering garden centers that will be stocking our plants: grownbyoverdevest.com/retail-locator/ and also, here's a link to another of our videos (on this channel) that explains more about the process: ruclips.net/video/DpO8JC27_Io/видео.html.

I suspect they are not hardy in my zone 7 anyway.
Brilliant, incredibly thorough thank you I learned a lot. I moved at the end of '21 and brought two hydrangeas with me that I had dug up and neither of them flowered last year. I think they are macrophylla types they are white, hoping for flowers this year, fingers crossed ! I had to smile when you popped the trash can over its head we had -11c here for a week in December and I covered many things with bubble wrap, upturned extra large planters and large boxes from when I moved and it did work !

Thanks to your most informative channel 👍... A couple of weeks ago planted 4 Hydrangea plants outdoor in Sweden, I will follow your recommended instructions to protect them because we have frozen days in winter.
Thank you and welcome to our channel. In your cold climate, keep an eye out for the remontant types - these are the ones that flower on both the old and new wood, so that if the tips get damaged, new growth and flower buds will emerge from lower down. To find out more, watch this video near the end (where I mention them) and also scroll through this channel where some fo them are profiled.
thank you
You're welcome
Great information and explanations there. Thank you from West Donegal!
You are very welcome, glad to hear you found our efforts helpful.

THANK YOU! I have an Endless Summer Hydrangea growing in snowy Minnesota and it has been deeply unhappy. I may have to move it to a more suitable location in the yard this year, but the overwintering tip is very helpful!
Minnesota is of course, is the home of Endless Summer! That's where a foreman at Bailey's Nurseries (and later Dr. Michael Dirr) discovered it.
But, that's a tough environment for these types of Hydrangeas. Some of the later (remontant) ones that Baileys have developed might do a little better... Chick out Bloomstruck and Summer Crush.

This video is very useful. The perfectly flowering big leaf Hydrangea stopped blooming when I pruned incorrectly two years ago. Now, with this new info, I can go out and figure out what needs to done. It has great healthy leaves though 😊
Good to hear, good luck and keep us posted.

THANKS for another great instructional video. Honestly, with all the magnificent newer, cold-hardy hydrangea cultivars today, I don't want to have to work that hard to protect hydrangeas in the my bitter cold 5b zone winter. I would dig those up and replace with some of the gorgeous tough new varieties from Proven Winners. Endless Summer is also a winner in my yard.
Thank you, for this nice comment. Your conclusion is completely understandable, and helps to illustrate how important these remontant types are in our colder areas. The little tip about mounding up the mulch around their bases in Autumn is however worth doing and should help you get better results. Don't forget to keep us all up to date with your progress, it is always useful for us all to share (and update) our findings because that helps other people too.
Fantastic information. I have a couple of those plants which grew such beautiful foliage this year and appear to be very healthy plants. I will take your information and look forward to maybe seeing flowers next summer. Thank you.

@@OverdevestNurseries Thank you. Yes, I enjoyed every minute. In my case, it may be a light problem. The neighbors’ towering maple shades these plants a good part of the day. They get full sun when the leaves drop in fall. How do you feel about transplanting hydrangeas? I’ll be watching. 😉

Great information from an expert grower. Here in WNY z5a to 6 a I’ve given up on macrophyllla hydrangeas bc in February we very often get a warm week that brings out the buds on macs which then freeze when cold returns for another 2 months. The flowers on these hydrangeas are most spectacular, however not here in my zone. I stick to arborescens, panicles, and lace caps which perform reliably & spectacularly!
Thanks, for letting us know.
As you've probably noticed (if you have been looking through all the other hundreds of videos we have here on this channel) that we are very fond of the Smooth, Panicle and Lacecap types too.
But we would suggest thar you don't give up on the Mophead types yet, because we know of a lady in Syracuse, NY area, that annually protects these older Vars. and has lovely displays and also the newer remontant types (that flower on the new wood as well as the old), are getting better and better all the time. Plant breeders are doing some sterling work, so, hand in there and let us know how you get on.

Thank you
Just subscribed because of all your wonderful info! Thank you!
That's great. Welcome to our world of gardening.
This video and information was excellent. Wish I’d seen it a few years ago, sigh… I’m in Zone 10 Northern CA. I have a 3 year old Monrovia Blue Enchantress hydrangea macrophylla ‘Monmar’ about 4’ tall in part shade, very happy. It is starting to bloom. I missed fertilizing it with slow release granular fertilizer in early spring. Is there any point now? Would it like any liquid fertilizer? I am also not clear on if my irrigation is sufficient but guess it’s OK since it’s blooming … wish I had guidelines for plants like this. We won’t get rain again until next winter.
I have the big leaves one and I trimmed it every year. It grew crazy but no flowers. I took one out and replaced it with something else. I decided to research and learned that it was my fault not knowing how to care for them. I now able to get it bloomed for couple of year now. I wish I have come across your channel sooner. I learned so much from you. Thank you 🙏
Wow, That's great news.

I've lucked- out to find a channel posting new videos. Have always had a soft spot for blue hydrangeas. I bought a potted endless summer last season. Couldn't get it into the ground so I brought it in for the winter. I thought I'd read that they flower off of the old wood. Over the winter I saw a green leaf and accidentally snapped it off. I thought I' d done it in but I see yours putting-out from the crown. The stems at the crown feel supple so I' m hoping it comes back. All your bushes are gorgeous.
Thank you & WELCOME to our channel😁
We are working on lots of other videos, so stay tuned and if you haven't already think about subscribing to this channel too, because then as they are posted you will get instant access and you won't miss any😉
One of the larger dormant Hydrangeas occurring in this video is a plant of Endless Summer, its been there for several years and is doing nicely. It (and its offspring, Bloomstruck & Summer Crush) are also featured in this video, and as you've seen flower on both the old & new wood, so it should grow out & flower later this summer.
Once the danger of frost passes, I suggest you try to get your plant in the ground because it will be easier to look after and over the longer period will do better.
FYI, here's a link to another of our videos that might help you understand how to ensure you get blue flowers (rather than pink): ruclips.net/video/DpO8JC27_Io/видео.html

Awww...that is so sweet. My 1st time here. I always read the 1st comment when I watch a video. I have been overindulged in politics for several yrs. This video (and 1st comment) made me realize there are still nice ppl in the world. And there are much happier things to do! Yay! Thanks for the hope and joy to both the speaker and commenter. 😊❤💃
This was a very useful video! I’m pretty sure my buds were killed off by a cold winter because the old wood has many buds but they all seem to be dead and dried out. I will try to insulate them this winter! But, disappointing that I won’t have my beautiful blooms! It is also a new hydrangea that I just planted last year so I will also be patient as you suggest lol Thank you!
Tracy, don't despair too much. Your plant might still flower, especially if it is one of the remontant ones that I mention towards the end of the video. Mounding, up the mulch around the base of the stems (also described near the end), works well too.
The first sign will be the little green buds appearing at the tops of the new growth (an example is also shown around the middle of the video), so watch for that and if they show up you, then you will be getting big gorgeous flowers. If the worst happens, and no buds appear, you will still have strong bushy shoots and with young plants that is exactly what you want at first anyway.
Thank you! David for this informative video. I learn so much from you and after finding your channel, several months back, I feel like I need your input before I make a decision. 😂
I wish I had thought that on a recent purchase of two flowering mop head hydrangeas from a big box store. I brought them home and planted them in two concrete planters on my deck, watered them in and went about my life. A few days later we got a frost (zone 6b) and half the flower heads were mush. I cut those off and hoping so much that I will get new flowers by summer. 🙏
Thank you for those kind words, its our pleasure to bring you our content, and it is great to hear you are finding our efforts helpful.
It is based on many years of experience, and a knowledge base that extends beyond David's own accumulated knowledge. Behind the scenes, there's a whole team of knowledgeable people contributing to our practical, down to earth approach. That includes those of us that work in our nurseries, and also the owners and experts at our partnering garden centers: grownbyoverdevest.com/retail-locator/. A combined resource that is rooted in our local neighborhoods, and comprises of many, many years of local experience.
We sometimes joke, that over the years "we've killed many plants - so you don't have to"! 😅😁😂
So, it is good that you are able to take advantage of this in the videos that we post, here on our channel. 👍😉
In regard to your hydrangeas, it depends (a lot) on what varieties they are. For example if they are remontant (or not). As a reminder, these are the ones that David's talks about near the end of the video.
If they were greenhouse forced (like the ones David also mentions in the video), they are likely to have their tips (with dormant flower buds) damaged in subsequent winters, so unfortunately they are unlikely to flower reliably outdoors. You could try protecting them or bringing them indoors to a cool place like a basement or garage - somewhere that's frost free, but cool enough to keep them dormant. But, this is tricky (and not easy), because they tend to start into growth early, and get drawn up in low light conditions.
That's why, we test and trial our varieties so much, and why we work so closely with our partnering garden centers. The idea is to identify the best performers for this region, and then through our network, have them stock the ones that they believe are best for each neighborhood. And then, have them back that up with their extensive expertise, and experiences of what goes on in the their backyards!
Nothing is ever perfect, but by visiting your local places and seeing what works well in your neighbors gardens, you stand a much better (and easier) chance of consistent success.
This process is ongoing and getting better all the time, so if you haven't already, you might like to think about subscribing to our channel, because once you are subscribed, each time we post a new video (which we will be doing all the time), you will find that they will turn up automatically in your feed.
And, as you find these videos helpful, it would be nice if you could kindly share the links with your family and friends too. And clicking the "like" button is good too, because that "spreads the word", and helps other people find out about the information also.
Finally, now that we are in the midst of the main planting season (spring through late Fall) you should think about popping into some of our partnering garden centers: grownbyoverdevest.com/retail-locator/. They are located all over our Mid-Atlantic and Northeastern region, because that's where you will find all sorts of beautiful, tried and true and cutting edge, top performing selections, ones that are tested and selected for your area. And, be sure to stop in regularly too, throughout the seasons because there'll be fresh shipments of new things coming in weekly all through this period.
Thanks again for your kind comments and good luck with enjoying success in your garden.
Love my pink Hydrangea. Fortunately, where I live in Australia, it's not too cold.
Yes, they can be really impressive. Congratulations.

That's great to hear, thanks for watching and letting us know.
There's lots of really wonderful varieties, so stay tuned because David is busy creating more videos all the time.

I've watched two of David's videos on hydrangaes and he is incredible teacher...so detailed and he leaves nothing out. I needed this video back in 2006 when I planted Endless Summer in Nebraska...not my idea but in my landscaper's plan. I've been struggling to get them to bloom ever since and over the years have used some of the suggestions made here. But alas, the majority of canes are mostly dead coming out of winter and the new blooms don't show up until October. I do get a few blooms but very few. Nevertheless, the foilage is abundant :{ Had I known this back then, I would have dug them up and replaced them. Now the roots have spread and are too big and I'm too old to start over.
Thank you, that's very nice of you to say so. We appreciate your kind comment.

My sentiments about endless summer exactly. Very frustrating plant. I live in illinois zone 5 and have had this dumb plant for over 7 years and it has bloomed sparingly. One last season using cages and leaves and if it fails again i will rip it out
Awesome directions! Thanks for all the ideas!
Thank you so much! That was so informative. I now know what kind of hydrangeas I have, and how to coax them back into flower. I will definitely look for a remontant hydrangea for my smallish garden this season.
Wonderful, we are delighted to hear that you found our efforts helpful!

Thank you 🙏 tons of excellent techniques that I can try in my zone 3 garden I really love hydrangeas specially the oak leaf but they won’t thrive in my zone I will try to cover them really well if I have chance to get one thank u again
Thank you, we are delighted to hear you are finding our efforts helpful and hopefully inspiring. Towards the end of this video you will see me mounding up extra mulch around the base of the plants. In your area, insulating the crown of the plants is going to be important. Also when you try it, we would suggest you plant your varieties in spring or early summer, that way they will have the longest possible time to settle in and establish before the rigors of winter begin.
A new subscriber, very interesting thank you for sharing.
Thanks for your kind comment and the sub!
Thank you for another wonderful instructional video! I love hydrangeas so much I have added a few different types in my garden. Then I was disappointed and worried that I was doing something wrong when they didn't seem to flourish the next season. With your help I'm learning the tips I need. And also that patience helps!
You are very welcome, and it is great to know that our efforts are helping. As I think you have discovered, there's several different sorts of Hydrangeas. So it might be fun to bolster your assortment with some of the easier, faster to establish panicle & smooth Hydrangeas sorts, and maybe more of the remontant ones (that I mention here in this video), and then as they all mature and establish look forward to the reward of having mopheads, lacecaps and oakleaved ones come through and take their turn to delight, thrill and inspire.
h@@OverdevestNurseries❤😢😢😢
Thanks! I have problems with deer eating my buds so I'm going to try your tips!!!

Deer eat the stem ends of my panicle hydrangea (Proven Winners Vanilla Strawberry) every single winter (zone 4, Michigan) and every single summer it has beautiful blooms that never fail to get a compliment! I am giving my Endless Summer varieties to friends that live in warmer areas, and replacing them with the panicle type because they bloom so reliably on new wood. The deer actually do me a favor by pruning it when I've gotten too busy to do it myself, lol! Hydrangeas are my favorite... so easy to care for, and such gorgeous flowers!
Great information. Ive had my hydrangea for over 20 years, it blooms on old wood. 1st year i had it, icut it to the ground in the spring after all frost and freezes were over. Wrong thing to do.I never done that again. I blooms so beautiful, all colors pink, purple, blue, white and even green. Huge beautiful blooms. But this year i didnt know it was going to frost and she already had green on her. I didst cover her up with my white sheet that i always use. She came back out of the roots, she's lush, green and great big as usual, but she didn't bloom. That's fine, she still alive. Ill just have to really watch her next spring. Thank you so much for sharing all this wonderful information. I absolutely love your voice, its so smooth and relaxing.❤
Thank you for your kind comments.
Now you know how to protect the buds and young growth on your Hydrangea, hopefully you will be able to get it back to performing well again.

Thank you will try these methods hope it works I have several hydrangeas that do not flower but some of them bloom all summer
Thanks, its worth a try. Be sure to keep us posted of you location and progress, and obviously those the ones that flower on their own without too much intervention are going to be preferable going forward. So, try to make a note of these varieties and be sure to pass that knowledge on to other folk in your neighborhood, so they can enjoy them too.

I've been growing hydrangeas for years now but I never seen flowers blooming from it. I did put fertilizer though. But probably I should put it on a shaded location as you say. Tq you for the info. Greetings from North Borneo.
Thank you for your input. Let us know how you get on.
I grew up by the sea in southern England and everywhere people had flourishing flowering hydrangeas. But I now live 35 miles inland and we have frosts! Now I know why my hydrangeas don't flower - late April or early May frosts kill the emerging flower buds. Next winter I will move them into my conservatory with blankets. (They are in pots) Thanks for your expert advice.
Good plan, or keep some "frost blankets" handy if you ever venture to have any in the ground
This is best tutorial

@@OverdevestNurseries Great, please thanks for your update.
Thank you for your very informative video. Have a few hydrangeas which I love. I’m a new subscriber from Ontario 🇨🇦🤗
Welcome to our channel and thanks for subscribing.
I really like this video and the attention to detail that David has put into it very impressive for someone like me that has done a lot of experimenting.
With regards to the approaches of trying to protect the in-ground plants thru the winter (Boston, MA area so ca be harsh)... I have tried a couple things, namely the galvanized netting (I used chickenwire which is not as effective from a supporting weight perspective) - but the problem I had there is that the weight of snow crushed the delicate buds - even using the rake end as David shows in the video can be damaging as they are delicate. Now so I said to myself, ok, lets completely protect the buds from the elements, and so I bought a clear plastic greenhouse from GrowIT which offered full protection from the elements thru the entire winter while also providing full light. I remember mid-winter looking thru at the buds on the ends of each of the stems, they were gorgeous and plump. Unfortunately at one point in the spring, I dont know when, but at one point those beautiful buds all just rotted/dried up and very few of them survived, while the whole time protected from wind snow and rain but not the temperature which you cant really control. I am thinking that that variation in temperature change had an impact causing the buds to die/rot and that it really depends on the particular winter/spring which varies year to year, BUT the stems themselves did survive and are currently sending out buds - the question will be will those buds heavily flower - thats the question I will have the answer to in the next month or so. The variety in this case is a dwarf hydrangea I bought from Home Depot and supplied by Weiss Nurseries out of NY (they truly are dwarf which is great for the specific location along a low stone wall - larger would be awkward looking) and I know as a fact that it has the potential to flower heavily as when I first purchased them but have since gotten mixed results hence the measures I have just described that I have taken
With regards to mulching heavily at the base, I make my own leaf mulch from a Yard Machines mulcher and heavily mulch the base but I dont feel that that has made so much of a difference even though it sounds like a good idea and does look good also.
Finally I didnt know about the remontant variety that was very interesting about the history if you google it and something certainly worth trying if doing new purchases.
Thanks for your kind remarks. It is interesting to learn how you are getting on in the Boston area.
Have you had a chance to watch David's latest video on our remontancy trials? If not, here's a link: ruclips.net/video/gUk6cvihgpQ/видео.htmlsi=ire4FB_q3DRTEVof and also stay tuned because he is working on another updated version that will show the best of them at a later stage.
