Non-Flowering 3 Yr. Old Hydrangea

I have a small, but apparently quite healthy hydrangea that was planted in the spring of 2007. I do not know the type of hydrangea it is. The problem is that it appears very healthy, with lovely leaves and healthy branches, but it has not yet flowered. Can you give me some suggestions?

The soil around the non-blooming hydrangea may be lacking in phosphorus. That can affect the ability of the plant to bloom. These articles will help you learn more:
