Our Experience

At PGNE, we'd typically recommend this for protected beds where the customer wants blue hydrangea color without planting a large shrub. Give it mulch, steady water, and light pruning; do not shear it in spring.

Plant Facts

Customers Usually Ask

Will the flowers stay blue?

Only if the soil is acidic enough; otherwise expect purple to pink tones.

When should I prune it?

Prune lightly after the first bloom or remove dead tips; avoid hard spring pruning.

Will it bloom after winter?

It can bloom on old and new wood, which gives better backup than older bigleaf types.
