Will A Hydrangea Rebloom

The maintenance person at my condo has hacked off all the flower buds (he thought he was pruning) on the nearby hydrangea that I have been caring for! They were just about to bloom. Zone 3 Edmonton AB. Will this send it into shock? Will it rebloom? What can I do to help it? I am very distressed.

It depends on the type of hydrangea it is whether it will rebloom. If it's a reblooming hydrangea, like Endless Summer, it may bloom again. They bloom on buds formed last summer as well as buds formed this year on new growth. If it was any other hydrangea type and he got all the buds, that will be it till next year. Just keep it watered as usual. Here is more:
