  • It was less than five months ago that I was standing in snow pruning hydrangeas. So how did all that pruning turn out? We're checking in on the hydrangeas I pruned and a couple other favorites growing in my garden.

    I so appreciate your videos, Erin! In 2022 my husband and I got to go to the Proven Winners event at Mackinac Island, Michigan. As a gift, we received some lovely plants. We each got a Little Quick Fire Hydrangea and then someone who was flying gave us a third. That was in the Fall. I planted them and last year they grew but of course, did not have flowers. This year I have flowers coming and am very excited. I think by my "End of June Garden tour" they should be looking lovely. Mary Born, ND

    Thank you for the inspiration! Just dug up a Viburnum, chewed by urban critters. Looking to replace it with a hydrangea for an East facing wall of my house. Just morning sun. How much fun is this to see new growth and beauty. The hardest is finding the right plant variety for the growing conditions and ignoring/ suppressing the desire to plant what I really want to work. Letting go when stuff happens and moving forward. A little microcosm of a macrocosm of life. In 5b, East side of Milwaukee. Thinking Bobo or an Oak-leaf. Loving the support and encouragement from this online community. Not sure where I read this; the difference between an ok gardener and a great one is the great one kills more plants. ❤

First thing I ever pruned in my life, but it had obviously been ignored for a long time and needed it. I was worried I had totally overdone it, but it filled in beautifully this year. So, dense with leaves and way more blooms than last year.

    I found that not pruning at all Hydrangea Annabelle, except for a bit of dead heading and light tidying up, results in less lush growth and slightly smaller flower heads less likely to flop. Also if planted near trees, but not in too much shade, their growth will be tighter and also less flopable as the trees suck up a lot of the water. I found Hydrangea Incrediball the same, even with its bigger flower heads, if only lightly pruned and definitely worth the extra money you pay for it.
