Hydrangea - Paniculata

Hydrangeas are divided up into different categories. The type determines pruning times to produce the best bloom. arborescens types (Smooth Hydrangea) – bloom on new wood so they should be pruned hard in late winter or early spring especially to maintain shape of plant. macrophylla types (Mophead Hydrangea) – bloom on old wood so minimal pruning is required; deadhead as needed. The pH of the soil may determine bloom colour with some Mophead types (acidic soils produce more blue blooms whereas alkaline soils will bring out more pink colour) paniculata types (Panicled Hydrangea)– bloom on new wood; prune in late winter/early spring. Many varieties can be easily pruned into a Standard, tree form. quercifolia types (Oakleaf Hydrangea) – bloom on old wood so pruning is minimal; deadhead as required. All Hydrangeas like to grow in an area where moisture is always available.
