If you cut hydrangeas when they bloom, will they grow back this season?
Hydrangeas?
Depends on the variety. Most "mophead" types bloom on old wood, so you'll only get one flush of blooms. The cultivar 'Endless Summer' blooms on both old and new wood, so it keeps going longer. The nice thing about hydrangeas is that the flowers dry so well, it can look like it's still blooming even if the flowers have lost their color from being dead...
Reply:Depending on how long your season is, they may send up shoots from lower down that will create a flower.
Reply:plant them where it is moist, also put a penny or copper nail in the hole when you plant them, this will help with the colors.
Reply:you can cut your hydrangeas but wait till fall...early spring pruning is ok. if you cut flowers to take inside after blooming it's ok the plant will still produce other blooms.friends have theirs to the ground in the fall and they came back just fine.
Reply:They bloom for about 3 weeks. If you live where there are 4 seasons then ' no ' they won't rebloom theis season if you cut them
