This video provides tips on pruning hydrangeas to create a healthy and bushy plant. Pruning hydrangeas is not just a garden chore but also a way to revitalize plants, helping them bloom bigger and better each year. Insufficient sunlight is the most common cause for leggy, spindly hydrangeas. To make your hydrangea bushy with lush leaves and blooms, you should give your plant more sunshine. If your hydrangea is in a pot, all you have to do is to keep up with pruning to create more branching.
Hydroponic pruning can be done in late fall or early spring, as next year’s flower buds won’t be formed until late spring the same year they bloom. To check if your hydrangea blooms on old wood, inspect it for buds. Learning how to prune hydrangeas is an easy gardening skill to master, but knowing when to prune them takes a more experienced grower.
When your hydrangea bushes get too big, from proper pruning to potentially moving your hydrangea, these expert-approved tips will help you restore your overgrown shrub. Pruning hydrangeas removes dead, damaged, or diseased stems and flowers, which can harbor pests and diseases. It improves the shape and appearance of the plant, making it more compact and bushy.
As a young plant, it is best to prune or pinch your plant to build a full-bodied, well-branched plant. Cut out one or two of the oldest stems at the base to encourage new, replacement growth that will produce more flowers. Deadheading when the flowers are dead is recommended, as anything pruned will likely not grow a flower next year. Hard pruning to around 25cm above ground level will give you a compact bushy shrub, while for a taller plant, prune to around 60cm high.
