How to Grow and Care for Hydrangea Flowers Seeds - Mixed Color

  • Planting Location: Hydrangeas thrive in partially shaded areas but can tolerate full sun in cooler climates. They prefer moist, well-drained soil that is rich in organic matter. Ideal soil pH for blue blooms is acidic (pH 5.5–6.5), while pink blooms are promoted by alkaline soil (pH 6.5–7.5).
  • Planting Instructions:
    1. Soak the seeds in water for 24 hours before planting to encourage faster germination.
    2. Start seeds indoors 8–10 weeks before the last frost, planting them ¼ inch deep in seed-starting mix.
    3. Maintain temperatures of 65–75°F (18–24°C) for optimal germination.
    4. Once seedlings have grown large enough to handle, transplant them to their permanent outdoor location after the risk of frost has passed.
  • Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during dry spells. Hydrangeas require regular watering but should not sit in waterlogged soil. A well-draining, slightly acidic soil is ideal for their health.
  • Fertilization: Use a balanced, slow-release fertilizer to encourage strong growth and abundant blooms. Fertilize in the early spring before new growth begins and again after flowering to maintain healthy foliage and flowers.
  • Pruning: Prune dead or damaged stems in late winter or early spring before new growth starts. To shape the plant, remove spent flowers in fall to prevent seed formation and encourage more blooms in the next season.
  • Mulching: Apply mulch around the base of the plant to help retain moisture, suppress weeds, and keep the roots cool in summer.
  • Winter Care: In colder climates, protect your hydrangea with mulch or burlap to prevent frost damage. Some varieties may require winter protection if grown outside of their hardiness zones.
