There are 6 types of hydrangeas. This... - The Garden of Eden

This is one of the most confusing plants for plants! This kind of hydrangea is a macrophylla, or big leaf variety. There are several other types of hydrangeas, including panicale, arborescens (ilke Incrediball and Annabelle), and climbing hydrangeas). Within this category there are serrata (a category) and other hybrids, such as Endless Summer (a trademarked hybrid). Some people cover them with burlap. I don't have time or interest in that but I've heard that can help protect them from the cold.

I post a lot of hydrangea content but I’m still getting a lot of questions so I’m just going to keep going! 😆 This kind of hydrangea is a macrophylla. (The “Old wood” type). New growth is coming in on the bottom and the buds that formed last year are the flowers for this year. I don’t think any of these are active because of a major cold snap but maybe we’ll be surprised. I waited a while to see what was going to happen to mine and chopped them back a few days ago because there was no buds gree
