Blossoming Questions

Why is my hydrangea not blooming?

Should my Easy Elegance shrub be pruned in the fall?

I purchased an Endless Summer hydrangea from you at least 6 years ago. The plant is very healthy, however it does not bloom like it should. The most blooms I’ve ever had in one season is 3. So far this year there is only one and there are and no buds developing. What is it lacking? It gets plenty of sun. And it seems to demand a lot of water as the leaves often droop if not watered. What nutrients would you recommend?

Can and when can you prune Vanilla Strawberry Hydrangeas? Is there a rule of thumb as to how much I can trim back?

Did cutting flowers last year in the fall to dry in vases cause my hydrangeas to not produce any flowers this year?

I have four Endless summer hydrangeas that are about 5 years old. Planted in various areas of sun to partial sun in our yard. I rarely get blooms. This year I got one bloom of all four plants. I cut them down in the fall as I thought this was the variety that bloomed on new wood. Is this the problem?

If the flowers are drooping to the ground, should I prop them up with supports?

I have three Endless Summer Hydrangeas in different locations around my house about 20 minutes north of Chicago. The plants all seem healthy and continue to grow but have yet to produce any flowers. Back on Fourth of July weekend I gave them all Dr Earth acid lovers fertilizer hoping this would give them the boost that they needed. I have yet to see any results. Any assistance you could offer would be greatly appreciated.
