Why did I not find you sooner?!?!?! Ok, so my dead “sticks” every year just means I need to winter protect my little hydrangea. He’s nearly five years old, but barely gets taller than my knees. I always get at least three or four good sized (bigger than my fist by quite a bit) blooms, but they’re late, so obviously all on new growth.

You’re a hydrangea genius! I love it, but was afraid to get more since this one never really excelled. Fear no more!

Thanks!

In Virginia, my Endless Summer develop a very interesting green and deep maroon color in the fall. They make excellent dry flowers at that point for the fall and the holiday season. Just clip them and air dry for a week in a cool area.

I use Hydrangeas as borders in peoples paved front gardens. The lovely colours break-up the somewhat commercial look of the paving that people choose these days. As you said in your article, they are great in areas not always in sunlight all day long and bring alot of pleasure to the house owner. The funny thing is that most of the people who specify these are older people. I think they’re great, anyhow! By the way, great Blog, Regards Martin.

I’ve decided Hydrangeas are one of my top 10 plants in the have to have category. Love them for the easy (almost none) care, as well as the lovely display of blooms each year.

I have many starts, but no big plants here in my new garden……..can’t wait for my baby plants to grow up and make a blooming hedge on my north side.
