- Spring pruning Hydrangea can be an intimidating task. I'll show you how to prune in the spring to ensure you don't cut back any blooms and allow for a healthier plant year after year! In this video i'm pruning big leaf hydrangea that blooms only on old wood, and also Endless Summer Hydrangea which blooms on old and new wood. I hope you enjoy!

By far this is the best video I have seen and been able to understand! Thank you so much. Can't wait to get outdoors and start pruning!
Thank you Barbara! That's so sweet of you!
It’s great that old fashioned faves like hydrangeas are popular again.
Totally agree! I love the giant blooms when the summer heat has fizzled out so much of the other flowers.
Wow you got them blue hydrangeas so beautiful. Love the yard so much with that pink flowering tree.❤️🌹
Thank you for this easy explanation! A lot of videos didn't fully explain why you pruned in spring so this demonstration was super helpful!
Best video explanation. So clear and helpful. Thank you and I love what you placed in your garden.
This was the best demonstration of pruning macrophylla hydrangeas I’ve seen. Thank you so much for sharing!
Aw thank you so much Sheila! That's such a generous complement. I'm so glad you enjoyed the video!
This was the most comprehensive and understandable explanation of how to prune hydrangeas, so thank you so much. I have been trying to figure this out for quite a bit. We have had our hydrangeas for 2 seasons and this first season on our own we messed them up and had very little growth. I feel like I have a good grasp now and comprehend how to take care of them!
Heather you are so sweet, thank you for the comment- it made my day! I hope you have wonderful big blooms next year!
You have a real talent. It’s all beautiful.
Thank you so much Gary!
Beautiful flowers and garden. Love it!
Thank you!
I am a new subscriber here and I love your rock wall! It is beautiful! It adds so much character.
Thank you! 🩷🩷
I'm a newbie. Finally, a clear step by step explanation with demonstration. I really enjoyed your beautful and colourful landscape with so many varieties of plants and gorgeous flowers. It's like I was there in the garden with you. Lol. Here in Florida, it's flat and boring.
I recently purchased some hydrangea macrophyllas with beautiful blue blooms. Do I need to fertilize them when they're in bloom? Do they grow well in pots? Thank you.
P.S. it is impossible to not like and subscribe with excellent content, lovely flowers and even lovelier lady? Have a blessed day.
You are so sweet JoJo and I’m sorry it’s taken me so long to reply- I had a baby! I hope your hydrangeas in Florida do well in pots! I have had mixed luck but I will tell you we lived in Manhattan and I had some inside in pots- they lost their leaves in the winter like they would outside so they looked dead and ugly but to my shock they came back in the spring and were beautiful! It’s worth trying for sure!
Very helpful. I pruned dead wood off my older hydrangeas a couple of weeks ago taking care to leave branches with early leafing. Alas we had a few nights of freezing temperatures. Those early leaves are dried up-what should I do now?
When you gave your tour of your front yard at the end of the video, what is the name of the beautiful pink tree? I haven't seen this in Los Angeles. Your garden is so welcoming and you sure have a green thumb. You make it look so easy. What city do you live in? What is the climate like?
Looks like a tulip magnolia. I’m in Charlotte nc, they are very common and beautiful here. Not sure where she is located.
Yes it’s a magnolia! I actually don’t know the variety but it’s over 30 feet tall and the blooms are about 5-6”. This is zone 7 southern Connecticut but now we live in zone 7 cape cod Massachusetts- I hope to add some new videos soon if our new property and gardens!
Hi. It appears that your bigleaf old wood forms leaf buds. Where do the flower buds form from there? I can’t seem to find answers. If the leaf buds grow to be stems, wouldn’t that be considered “new wood” like how panicles function (leaf bud forms on old wood and produces a stem with a flower bud on it). I don’t see the difference.
If I understand your question they grow out from the lead bud area! It’s not new wood because it’s off the old stem. New wood comes from the base! It actually really helped for me to go look at my hydrangeas once they bloomed in the late summer early fall (now) to see how the blooms formed and where so I was a little more knowledgeable with my specific plants and where to trim. I hope that helps!
@@ChristinasGardenLife wait. If “new wood” only comes from the base, why do they say limelight only blooms on new wood? Limelight blooms on both the new and the old wood from the year before, wouldn’t you say?
