- Some plants, like roses (Rosa spp.) are noted for fragrance. Hydrangea (Hydrangea spp.) is not. The most popular type, big leaf hydrangea (Hydrangea macrophylla), hardy in U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 6 through 9, has little fragrance, though a few cultivars may be scented.yramidal or cone-shaped flower panicles appear in late summer or early fall. They are white at first, aging to pink. All panicle hydrangeas have some scent, but varieties like Big Ben (Hydrangea paniculata Big Ben) have a more pronounced fragrance.

Hydrangeas It is best to root them in sand in a shaded area. Only the hydrangeas which naturally have pink flowers will bloom blue, and only if grown in acid soil. These lovely plants grow without difficulty in a wide variety of soils but prefer fairly rich, moist soil.They can grow in full sun if they are watered well, but they will bloom more freely in partial shade.he most common variety in our area is the French Hydrangea. Easy to grow in rich, moist soil, it has a large, mounding shape and can achieve heights of four feet in a year. The large foliage is dark green, but being deciduous, is gone in the winter.

Pick right time of year to prune hydrangeas: Ask the Ground Crew They are healthy plants, but they definitely do not put out a lot of blooms. -- Virginia Olienechak, Penfield. On some types of hydrangeas, the flowers we see this summer are from buds they set last fall (old wood). So if you prune them in late fall or early spring, or a cold winter kills the buds, you get no flowers. For these types, I recommend you prune immediately after flowering (if you need to) so the plant still has a chance to develop flower buds for next year. Oakleaf (Hydrangea quercifolia) fits into this category, as do the mop-head and lace-cap (H. macrophylla) types (usually pink or blue).

Hydrangea Care: Pruning Hydrangea Varieties You have removed the new buds with your spring pruning. Mophead hydrangeas bloom on old wood and produce flower buds on the stems in late summer for the following summer’s blooms. If those stems are pruned in the fall, winter, or spring, the buds will be removed, and there may be no blooms the following summer.

- Name: Hydrangea. Color: Hydrangeas are known as the chameleons of the plant kingdom. That means that they can have a wide range of colors. Starting from white, these flowers can also be red, pink, purple and blue. Shape: The hydrangea can have three different shapes when it comes to the way the flowers bloom. It can be a mop-head where the flower cluster looks like a bouquet. It can also be a lace-cap where the cluster is made up of flattened flowers.

- I noticed that everyone else's hydrangeas have started to sprout new growth but not mine. (I'm in Norfolk, Virginia.) I broke off a couple branches on the hydrangeas, and they snap off with ease. They're very brittle and dry, and this is true even down to the ground.hey don't like a sunny exposure and they don't like being dried out--ever. Perhaps your particular planting location is not to their liking, they're a persnickity plant. They either love it or they're dead. Try planting them in a location with nice shade and constant moisture if you want hydrangeas in particular.

What do flowers smell like? I have never been able to smell flowers except for lavender and sage. But I have never been able to smell anything else. Especially roses, I've always wanted to smell one. Update: It's not like I haven't gotten the chance to. I just can't smell them. Update 2: I can smell everything except players. And in the lavender I can smell a detergent-like smell, though.

- There’s nothing shy about hydrangeas! Their enormous pom-poms crowded with star-shaped blooms in shades of pink, blue, lavender, and eggshell epitomize lavish beauty and femininity. Whether you’ve chosen a potted hydrangea as a gift for someone or as a gift to yourself, you’ve chosen wisely.ater: Hydrangeas are thirsty plants that love moist soil, but hate wet feet. Be sure to not allow the soil to dry out, but resist overwatering as standing water will cause the roots to rot. After bringing your new hydrangea home, give it a good soaking to be sure the soil is moist.

Hydrangeas Oakleaf hydrangeas and the bigleaf hydrangeas (those with the pink and blue flowers) both bloom in the summer, but set flower buds in the fall. It is too late to prune them now until next summer. The only time you can prune without damaging flower set is immediately after flowering.

Hydrangea: Sun or Shade? In general, for most hydrangeas except the panicle types, plan to give hydrangeas both sun and shade. Morning sun with afternoon shade works beautifully in the South and warmer regions. In these zones, afternoon sun sizzles and can easily fry hydrangeas.

Flowers And Fragrances Rose pollen, for instance, contains a fragrance profile separate from the rest of the flower, but fragrances from the rest of the flower usually overpower pollen fragrances. As you may have noticed in your travels around the garden after a rain, flower fragrances are often stronger when the air is humid.

Hydrangea Frost Care Overview. Hydrangeas, particularly macrophylla or bigleaf varieties, are vulnerable to damage from frosts and winter temperatures below 10 degrees.Because hydrangeas set buds in the current season for next season's blooms, exposure to such conditions can damage the delicate buds.If the exposure lasts for more than a few hours, the buds can be killed. Deep freeze can be problem for the rest of the plant, including the roots if the plants are potted.ecause hydrangeas set buds in the current season for next season's blooms, exposure to such conditions can damage the delicate buds.

Limelight Hydrangeas In Bloom Though the plant may come back and thrive, there are little to no blooms. Some cultivars rely on more temperate zones than ours. Some cultivars seem to bloom with abandon for growers, but fail to deliver with gardeners. The Limelight hydrangeas pictured above are on a very busy street in my area, in full sun.

- Overview. Perfect for gardens in temperate climates, hydrangeas need a winter dormancy that is punctuated with frost and subfreezing temperatures. However, if a hydrangea shrub is leafy or in bloom, frost will scald it and turn the plant tissue brown, and the petals and leaves will drop off.Untimely spring frosts can kill flower and leaf buds on shrubs, and reduce or prevent flowering later in spring and summer.rotect shrubs from a late frost by covering them with a cloth sheet or blanket when unseasonal cold is forecast. Plants nipped by frost should be cleaned and pruned only when there is no further threat of frost in spring. Frost causes hydrangeas' petals and leaves to turn brown in early to mid-autumn.

Planting and Transplanting Hydrangeas All hydrangeas will bloom and grow well in morning sun and afternoon shade. This is especially true of the commonly grown Hydrangea macrophylla. Macrophylla hydrangeas are the blue and pink mopheads and lacecaps. The further north one lives the more sun hydrangeas need and can withstand.eeGee hydrangeas actually need at least 5 hours of sun per day to bloom well. The Oakleaf hydrangeas will also grow in sun or shade, but the blooms last longer if they get a little afternoon shade in hot climates. The leaves on the Oakleaf hydrangeas will color up best in the fall if they receive some sun.

Paniculata Hydrangeas (PeeGee and Family) (PeeGee and Family) Paniculata hydrangeas will grow and bloom in a wide variety of climates (hardy to Zone 3!). Unlike mopheads, they need several hours of sun to do well. If your weather is too cold to grow the pink and blue hydrangeas or if your landscape doesn't have much shade, consider growing one of the many types of paniculatas.
