Problems With Hydrangeas White Blooming From Landscaper 2nd Year

Question

was never told about any fertilizer upkeep or any pruning or deadwood to take care of

Answer 1

It depends on the variety when to prune. If in doubt, wait till it blooms before doing any pruning because you could cut off the developing buds. Here is an article that tells about the different kinds such as oakleaf, pannicle, and mophead. Next time you see your landscaper, ask for the tags that came with the plants.
