transplanting
|
Hi Travis, do you know what zone you live in? You might get away with transplanting now if you live in a mild summer and mild winter climate, but otherwise, you'll be giving it a shock in the middle of the growing season, and during the heat of summer. The ideal time to transplant these are in the late fall or winter. When you do transplant, remember to dig up a good size root ball to help it get a strong start in its new home, plus give the plant a healthy pruning to minimize the shock as well. If you do all this and make sure it's given the right amount of water the first few weeks, they should take well to their new home.
Deadheading hydrangeas does no harm, certainly makes the plant look nicer, and hopefully will encourage some new blooms.
Good luck!

hydrangea
|
I have a hydrangea that I've been trying to grow for at least 8 years. It seems to die down in the winter and start growing again in late spring. It has never gotten more than a foot high and never produced any flowers. What am I doing wrong?

Hi Aleta, please tell us more about your Hydrangea. What state are you in? Where is it planted? Sun or shade? Is the soil more like clay or more like compost?
My guess is that if you are in the north, it probably needs a little more sun/warmth. Maybe a southern facing wall would do the trick. Also amend the soil around the plant with some compost or manure (and some sand if the soil is very clay-like), working it into the soil a bit as well. You can do that now or in the spring. When it start growing in the spring, you can give it a little flower fertilizer, and you should definitely get blooms next year!

hydrangea replant
|
I have a huge hydrangea plant that was my grandparents and has been around for ages, i want to remove it and replant at my current home. Both plant and myself live in Charlotte NC, so the soil is clay like. What is the best advice you can give me for transplanting this bush. the root ball is at least if not more, about 4 feet in diameter. It is now late february and i would like to have it in the next few weeks.

You're looking at a lot of hard work to move the whole thing. You can dig up the entire root ball, but I wouldn't recommend it. Dig up a quarter of it and divide it into a few separate plants. Or, just take a bunch of cuttings and plant those. Hydrangeas are fast growers, so with a bunch of cuttings they should fill in rather quickly.

Hydrangea transplant
|
If i divide this hydrangea is there any special instructions in transplanting? I will divide tomorrow and put into my yard, but do i need any special fertilizer or soil amendment? Someone told me to put some pennies in the hole beofre planting it...Is it too early in the season to transplant this hydrangea this weekend? I also reseeded my front yard last november after aerating and the seed is coming up, but not very thick, should I reseed in another month?

Hydrangea's enjoy a richer soil, so soil amendment is never a bad idea. You should also cut back them back to one or two feet if they are bigger, to reduce transplant shock. Other than that, no fertilizer necessary, and certainly no pennies! If you dig up a very big rootball, there should be no problem transplanting now, but if you don't dig up a very big one, a frost might cause a bit of damage. So it depends on where you are and how much digging you want to do.
If you look closely at your lawn and see that new seeds are still coming up, you can wait another few weeks and see if it's filling in more before deciding. If no new ones are sprouting up at all, and you're afraid it will take too long to fill in the gaps (depending on their size), you might want to go ahead and add a bit more seed now.

Your hydrangea should make it through the winter if you are in USDA Zone 6 or above. A deep mulch over the plant might give it extra protection, or if you are in a lower zone you can dig it up and bring it indoors for the winter. You can divide the plant into two in the late fall or early spring if you don't want to disrupt it too much, though other times of the year can work as well.
