Blossoming Questions

Love hydrangeas but having a terrible time getting my shrubs to bloom They haven’t produced blooms in a few years I also bought some new ones this year and have them in containers I snipped the blooms off them when they faded and now the plants haven’t rebloomed. Would deadheading affect their ability to rebloom? I am considering leaving them in containers since I have had poor luck with my planted shrubs Any tips for containers? I desperately need some blooms!

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!!!

When the buds turn brown what do you do it’s only July?

Website says to fertilize in early spring or summer so does that mean you only fertilize one time? But it also says follow instructions on label, which mine says feed every 14 days. I bought the Scots company garden pro water soluble miracid acid loving plant food. So do I only do this once or do I feed every 14 days?
