shaded area? do you feed compost and composted cow manure? Do you tend to
prune them in winter? Or are they left alone to grow as they will. If
you're pruning them late, you're sacrificing the blossoms. If not,
fertilize them with organic stuff and lets hope they're just coming into
their maturity. What kind do you suppose they are? Lace cap, Oakleaf, pink
or blue flowered, most of them require shade, and rich soils. and don't
prune them but right after they'd blossom which yours aren't. They flower
on old wood (except for the Oak leaf hydrangea, which flowers on the ends of
the stems)

There's always next year. So feed the plants, resist pruning and hope
they're in the right spot......eastward with dappled shade.

Hello all,

I have two hydrangea plants outside my home in Franklin, MA. Every year
they grow larger with the leaves but never seem to bloom with flowers. Is
there something that I need to do to get the plants to bloom.

I am obviously new to gardening and these plants where there when I bought
the house. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Sandra
