Endless Summer Hydrangea should be done throughout the season. Deadheading, whether a younger or older plant, is very beneficial because it encourages new blooms. When deadheading use sharp hand pruners to cut off the dead flowers. Cut the stem just above the first set of leaves beneath the spent flower at thirty-degree angle. Use this technique throughout the growing season will increase the number of blooms.
Great post. Title is very funny! Always a good idea to trim off the dead flowers before the growing season. Thanks for sharing!
