Question

When and how do I prune Vanilla Strawberry hydrangea?

Answer

You can get out those pruning shears and cut back your Vanilla Strawberry now! We recommend cutting back by at least 1/3 in late winter to encourage strong stems, and then blooms will come from new growth. I’ve shared a video that will show how to cut back: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KdFTkk_tiW8. Happy Spring and happy gardening!

Did cutting flowers last year in the fall to dry in vases cause my hydrangeas to not produce any flowers this year? My Endless summers are doing well but have branches sticking up that don’t have leaves or buds. Should I cut these branches? Several of my new hydrangea bushes appear to be victims of someone either cutting and stealing blooms in the middle of the night, or some kind of animal eating the stems and dropping the flowers. I’ve looked for hoof or paw prints but the mulch is good for concealing any tell tale signs. What’s doing this to my plants and how do I prevent it? It breaks my heart!!! First time with a summer crush hydrangea. Planted in most sun . Been 2 months doing great. Just wondering if should cut off the dead blooms. Or should I say discolored faded ones.?? They still look ok and I read on the tag. The less you prune the better ??? So just wasn’t sure??
