These enchanting plants are a favorite among gardeners for their lush foliage and breathtaking flowers that come in hues of blue, pink, white, and purple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, achieving those picture-perfect blossoms in your own garden might feel daunting. But with this guide from Blain&#8217;s Farm &amp; Fleet, you&#8217;ll be able to transform your green space with some simple yet effective tips on caring for hydrangeas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So grab your gardening gloves, and let&#8217;s get started! <\/p>\n\n\n<div role=\"navigation\" aria-label=\"Table of Contents\" class=\"simpletoc wp-block-simpletoc-toc\"><h2 class=\"simpletoc-title\">Table of Contents<\/h2>\n<ul class=\"simpletoc-list\">\n<li><a href=\"#1-test-your-soil\">1.

Soil with a pH less than 5.5 produces blue flowers, soil with a pH greater than 5.5 produces pink flowers, and white flowers are not affected by pH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can <a href=\"\/blog\/gardeners-guide-soil-ph\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">test your soil&#8217;s pH level<\/a> with a simple <a href=\"\/soil-testing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">soil test kit<\/a>. If it\u2019s too acidic, you can add limestone to the soil.

The Bigleaf variety, categorized as Lacecap and Mophead flowers, are the most common types of hydrangeas. You should <a href=\"\/pruning-shears\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">prune<\/a> them after the flowers fade (often referred to as &#8220;deadheading&#8221;). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Typically with hydrangeas, you should only cut away dead wood. Take off the wood at the base of the plant if the entire branch is dead. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&#8217;t prune hydrangeas past August. Any new growth can suffer from an early-fall freeze.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"bb-carousel bb-product-carousel\" data-cy=\"bb-product-carousel\">\n\t\t<div class=\"container\">\n\t\t\t<h2

Give Them Enough Space<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Hydrangeas grow quite large\u2014around four feet in diameter. So you&#8217;ll need to give each plant enough space to grow. If you&#8217;re planting multiple plants, space them about three to 10 feet apart. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Without enough room to grow, you will have to prune the plants more often.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"4-plant-them-in-the-right-spot\"><strong>4. Plant Them in the Right Spot<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Hydrangeas do best in rich, drained soil.&nbsp;The soil should also be moist, but not too wet that it causes root rot. Having a good drainage system is key to keeping the soil at the right amount of wetness. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s also important to protect the plants from the hot afternoon sun and strong winds, which can both damage hydrangea blooms and stems. Plant them in a partially shaded location where they&#8217;ll get full sun in the morning and shade in the afternoon.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"5-use-fertilizer-at-the-right-time\"><strong>5. Use Fertilizer at the Right Time<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<p>If you fertilize your hydrangeas, do so only once or twice during the summer. A slow-release <a href=\"\/plant-foods\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">fertilizer<\/a> works well to promote growth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just as with pruning, don&#8217;t fertilize after August. If you do, new flowers can be begin to bloom, and they can be affected by early-fall frost. In the Midwest, a one-time use of fertilizer in June or July works just fine.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"bb-carousel bb-product-carousel\" data-cy=\"bb-product-carousel\">\n\t\t<div class=\"container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"section-title\">Flower Food and Fertilizers<\/h2>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"carousel-controls\">\n\t\t\t\t<button class=\"carousel-button carousel-prev\" data-cy=\"carousel-prev\" disabled aria-label=\"Previous\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<i class=\"icon icon-arrow-back\"><\/i>\n\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t\t<button class=\"carousel-button carousel-next\" data-cy=\"carousel-next\" aria-label=\"Next\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<i class=\"icon icon-arrow-forward\"><\/i>\n\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"carousel-container bb-product-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"bb-product-list carousel-track\" role=\"list\" ><div class=\"carousel-item\" role=\"listitem\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"product\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.farmandfleet.com\/products\/399011-miracle-gro-liquid-all-purpose-plant-food-concentrate-32-oz.html\" class=\"product-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/products.blains.com\/300\/39\/399011.jpg\" alt=\"Miracle-Gro Liquid All Purpose Plant Food, Concentrate, 32 oz.\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"product-info\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"product-title-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.farmandfleet.com\/products\/399011-miracle-gro-liquid-all-purpose-plant-food-concentrate-32-oz.html\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"product-title line-clamp\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tMiracle-Gro Liquid All Purpose Plant Food, Concentrate, 32 oz.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"product-price \"> \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"product-price-current\">\n\t\t<span class=\"visually-hidden\">Price: $8.99<\/span>\n\t\t<div aria-hidden=\"true\"><span class=\"dollar-prefix\">$<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"product-price-dollars\">8<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"product-price-decimals\">99<\/span><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.farmandfleet.com\/products\/399011-miracle-gro-liquid-all-purpose-plant-food-concentrate-32-oz.html\" class=\"product-callout\">Shop Now<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"carousel-item\" role=\"listitem\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"product\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.farmandfleet.com\/products\/1526174-miracle-gro-1-lb-water-soluble-bloom-booster-flower-food.html\" class=\"product-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/products.blains.com\/300\/152\/1526174.jpg\" alt=\"Miracle-Gro 1 lb Water Soluble Bloom Booster Flower Food\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"product-info\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"product-title-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.farmandfleet.com\/products\/1526174-miracle-gro-1-lb-water-soluble-bloom-booster-flower-food.html\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"product-title line-clamp\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tMiracle-Gro 1 lb Water Soluble Bloom Booster Flower Food\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"product-price \"> \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"product-price-current\">\n\t\t<span class=\"visually-hidden\">Price: $7.99<\/span>\n\t\t<div aria-hidden=\"true\"><span class=\"dollar-prefix\">$<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"product-price-dollars\">7<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"product-price-decimals\">99<\/span><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.farmandfleet.com\/products\/1526174-miracle-gro-1-lb-water-soluble-bloom-booster-flower-food.html\" class=\"product-callout\">Shop Now<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"carousel-item\" role=\"listitem\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"product\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.farmandfleet.com\/products\/1216400-miracle-gro-45-lb-shake-n-feed-rose-and-bloom-plant-food.html\" class=\"product-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/products.blains.com\/300\/121\/1216400.jpg\" alt=\"Miracle-Gro 4.5 lb.
