Blossoming Questions

I live in zone 8a. Can my BloomStruck take 6 hours of direct sun and evening shade?

What side of the house do you plant summer crush?

MY ENDLESS SUMMER HYDRANGEA IS NOT BLOOMING – IT IS IN MOSTLY SHADED AREA – IS THIS THE PROBLEM?

MINE (HYDRANGEA) HASN’T BLOOMED IN SEVERAL YEARS. THE PLANT LOOKS FANTASTIC, JUST DOES NOT BLOOM. IT’S 9 YEARS OLD.

ARE THESE (EASY ELEGANCE) ROSES RESISTANT TO WITCHES BROOM?

I JUST RECEIVED AN ENDLESS SUMMER HYDRANGEA FOR MOTHER’S DAY. SHOULD WE PLANT IT RIGHT AWAY OR CAN WE PUT IT IN A POT? IF WE PUT IT IN A POT WHEN CAN WE PUT IT IN THE GROUND? ALSO, IN IOWA, HOW MUCH SHADE IS PARTIAL SHADE?

ONLY 1 OF 4 PLANTS BLOOMED LAST SUMMER. THIS SPRING I HAVE GREEN BUDS AT GROUND LEVEL BUT NOT ON LAST YEAR’S WOODY STEMS. THE BUDS ON THE OLD STEMS ARE BROWN AND APPEAR TO BE DEAD. SHOULD I CUT THE OLD STEMS TO THE GROUND? HALFWAY? WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?

IS IT POSSIBLE TO TRANSPLANT AN ENDLESS SUMMER THE ORIGINAL THAT IS SEVERAL YEARS OLD? I DON’T THINK ITS GETTING ENOUGH SUN TO ENCOURAGE BLOOMING.

WHEN FLOWERS WILT CAN I PLUCK THEM OFF SO NEW ONES WILL COME IN?

WHAT IS THE TALLEST HYDRANGEA THAT WILL GROW IN FULL SHADE?
