Blossoming Questions

I have a Hydrangea this is it’s 2nd year in a container, last year it had beautiful flowers, this year, its just getting taller no buds yet. From the top of the pot to the top of the plant it is about 30″ tall very full. What can I do to help it or should I have done something earlier? I did just give it plant food. Granulars and watered it.

What shade loving plants besides hostas will tolerate dry, heavy clay soil?

About 3 weeks ago I planted summer crush hydrangeas in zone 5 in NE. Per you site and the tag it claims these plants can have full sun in zones 4-9. I planted these facing east and given the sun rise I believe they are getting about 8 hours of sun. Since it’s gotten a little warmer I’ve been noticing them drooping a little come the end of the sun time. They seem to re bound after they are in the shade and or I water, but I’m concerned since it will only get hotter here. Is this just b/c their are newly planted or should I be concerned I planted them in too much sun? Also, how much should I be watering them? Thanks

How can I get my hydrangea plant to grow larger? Every year the plant died back and new growth are coming from the base when summer arrives. All the branches left from previous are all dead and did not have any new growth, and pruning did not seems to help.

On the west side of my house there is about a 6ft wide path between my house and the fence. We are putting in a 4ft wide interlock walkway and there will be a foot and a half space between the house to the interlock that will be soil and we’d like to plant something. Zone 5. Is this enough room to put any type of hydrangea? I love the colors.

I’ve had my hydrangea for 4 years and no blooms. It looks healthy not sure what I’m doing wrong.

How come my hydrangea doesn’t flower?

I would like to put the hydrangea I just bought in a large pot instead of in the ground, is that possible?

My Blushing Bride has so many small flower heads. It may be preventing it from growing large flowers. Should I prune some of the small heads?

How do I know exactly what kind of hydrangea I purchased?
