Should I cut hydrangeas back in the fall? My hydrangea plant is VERY big and hasn’t bloomed in a couple of years.

Question

It bloomed for the first five years–but lately, not.

Answer 1

When to cut your hydrangea depends on the variety, as pruning them at the wrong time can cut off growing flower buds. These articles should help:
