Pruning Hydrangeas is essential in allowing it to keep producing those large balls of flowers. Hydrangeas should be pruned and cut back from late February to early March when it starts to show new growth. The old Hydrangea seed heads should then be cut back, along with any dead or crossing stems. A percentage of old growth should also be cut back as well.

  1. I usually leave the heads on until I think the last frost has passed only because the heads protect the hollow stems. The density and hollowness of the wood on hydrangea is quite vulnerable to the frost and can die off from the inside out. Other than that looks good 👍🏽

  2. Bit early for me ..any frost and snow will knock back those new flowering buds .I would thin out some of the old stems from the base to open up the middle and create better light and air flow and give it a mulch and feed after 😉

  3. Many will find this useful because it’s coming up to the exact time to do it. Very professionally explained and useful information

  4. Well explained 👍I went on a general horticulture course when I started in the game & we were taught the 3 Ds of pruning.dead diseased & damaged I added a 4th dangerous 👍

  5. In my garden I prune them after they flower….never known a hydrangea to die…..winters have changed
    ..alot of the old books don't correlate to today's climate…however for customers i always give them the option during winter…alot of.customers think they look untidy so want them doing pre Christmas
