I had no idea there were this many varieties of hydrangeas. Being in the south ... these are a favorite! Thx for all the info ! 😃

[@jackiew4827]

White wedding pannicle is my favorite!

[@007Lehua]

I tend to gravitate towards the Hydrangea - "Pinky Winky." A few weeks ago, I purchased 4 bare-root that were similar to this variety. Thus far 3 out of 4 hydrangeas have buds. Which I'm really excited about. Thanks to you and all your videos on Hydrangeas - especially, the Lime Light video; encouraged me to give it a try. I can't wait to tag you photos - once they start blooming, but it will be a while. :)

[@ommfss]

This video is exactly what I needed. I never cared for hydrangeas but over this past year I fell in love seeing them all over your garden. I've been wanting to add some to my yard this year and this was so helpful. Thank you!

[@kathyfrench2686]

Thank you for showing these gorgeous hydrangeas! Splendid. Can't possibly pick a favorite. I'll just run to garden center and see what varieties they have for my spot.

[@kathyraidt16]

I loved the garden tour! Thank you. I didn't realize there were so many varieties of hydrangeas.

[@sybilvanwyk3661]

I live in Cape Town South Africa and love hydrangeas. Spring now by us and waiting for it to bloom.

[@sybilvanwyk3661]

Wish we had these in our nurseries.

[@UseEveryLastScrap]

I love, love, love Limelight! I have 5 of them. They are quick growing. They bloom for SO long! You could pick 25 blooms and not put a dent in the bush!!! It is extremely easy to grow. You don't have to do anthing to them, and they look beautiful. I grew mine in the full sun in Northwest NJ, where there is no salt spray protection and it NEVER fazed them. After Hurricane Sandy, I thought I lost them. They were flattened. The next day, they sprang back up again. No problemo!!! Roses might be the queen of the garden, but Hydrangeas are the Goddess of the garden!

[@amandapratt7079]

they are all gorgeous, wow. amazed at God's beautiful creation in nature. I want to plant them in my garden🍃

[@jaimemorgan5323]

Isn't He endlessly creative?!

[@margiemcpeak9304]

OMG! Thank goodness you listed these in the video description! When you talk THAT FAST, I simply can't keep up! I always feel like I missed out on a lot of either information or photos and inevitably have to rewatch right away. I'd REALLY have to study on the subject of which are my favorites or which ones I'd love to plant in my garden. I do like Zinfin Doll; but, it's just too big for my property, since I already have so many other hydrangeas planted all over the place. I love Little Bobo, too! That's such a sweet one! Let's face it. I love all hydrangeas; just like I love all hoya houseplants! Thanks for sharing these lovely, special plants. 🌾💜

[@carpetrug01]

I watched this at my local garden center today when I was trying to decide which to buy. I was between Bobo and Limelight but went with bobo. Love it.. thank you!!

[@camilla6110]

Exciting!! We had a very wet winter so that should make the hydrangeas just incredible this spring and summer! I put a little 40 inch wire fence around my hedge of Annabelles and that holds them up perfectly and they keep their shape. I even do this with IncrediBalls but I have to make the fence larger every couple of years as they just get huger and huger, which is a good thing!! I love the white and the lime chartreuse green colors together with some lavender and purple annuals and perennials tucked in here and there! Wooooooo! Thank you for spreading spring fever Laura and for showing us the beautiful varieties of this amazing plant! ☺️☺️

[@budoneof15]

Wow, so many beautiful options. Aaron. I love the transitions you used on the plant names. Love what you two do and love this channel

[@carolynparsons2315]

Little Lime may be what I need to go with. Thank you this was wonderful!

[@kayraykiewicz8511]

My favorite from last year (while not on this specific list) was the "Let's Dance Rave" hydrangea. Absolutely beautiful cross between blue and pink!

[@rnguyen2516]

Thank you so much, Laura, did this helpful video! I always go back and watch your old videos! I’m in Texas 8B and any hydrangeas that bloom white and are supposed to age to pink don’t do that here in our heat 🙁. They brown before they can do that. It’s been tricky for me to find the perfect amount of light. Too much light and they scorch. Too little and they won’t bloom at all! I’d love to try Invincibelle Spirit II since Laura mentioned it was re-blooming.

[@theresabarham8778]

I have several but my favorite will always be the Incrediball. It was a gift from my daughter and my first Proven Winners. This variety is absolutely stunning!

[@soulsister3143]

My pinky winkys seem to stuggle, im not sure if i should cut them to improve or feed them in the spring...help!

Can I just say GORGEOUS 😍 I LOVE ALL OF THEM. It was really nice to see the different varieties both large and small. Thank you!

Beautiful selection of bulbs. So excited to see how they look next spring

[@connietayonlomax1949]

I would love Invincible Mini Mauvette, Fire Light and Bo Bo Paniculata. But they are all beautiful!!! Thank you so much for this video!!! Love your channel!

[@love2laffwithu356]

Thank you for posting this video Laura. I have come back to watch it many times. Since I first watched this video, I have planted a Pinky Winky, Fire Light and 2 Little Limes in my landscape as well as 2 bobos in containers. I can’t wait to see what they do! As a first time hydrangea grower, I’m most excited to see the Firelight and the Bobos. I would LOVE to get my hands on a Zinfindol sometime. Fingers crossed. Thanks again!

[@Tifb87]

Love these informational videos just as much as your garden tours!!! You're an amazing wealth of knowledge and I'm grateful to you for your help and tips

[@pennysantana7809]

They are my favorite flower no matter what kind. They remimd me of my grandparents house. In the front of the house my poppop use to have white and periwinkle colored ones. They were huge and beautiful. I remember when I was little he would put his used coffee grinds on them and he always said thats why they looked so pretty. He would cut them for my grandmom and make beautiful boquets for her. 💝

[@stayathomegypsy5078]

Awesome video! I’m just so excited for this spring! I absolutely love your channel. I started watching you a couple of years back for mostly succulent advice. We are city dwellers and succulents were all we had room for on our small city patio. I’ve learned so much from you. We close on a 1908 farmhouse today with a huge garden. I’m so grateful and excited I have you and this channel in my life! Thank you for making these wonderful videos for us! Much love from Northern California! ❤️🙏🏽

[@barbll000]

Thanks for this valuable info. I got out my garden journal and wrote down the varieties. I definitely plan on getting more hydrangeas. About 30 years ago I was given a stick and told to push into the soil and it would grow and it did. From your info and the fact that the stems flop over like the photo you showed I know it's the older variety of white hydrangea from the 1960s. Last year I planted several panicles (my favourite) both shrubs and tree form. Also I love the Oak Leaf hydrangea which you introduced and I got one of those. Can't wait for spring :)

[@kathy2299]

Limelights are the BEST!

[@shirleybell238]

I just planted a Little Quick Fire in a container. I also planted a lime light and a fire light in the landscape. I had one Invincebelle Spitit that is doing very well. Love Hydrangeas. I am impatiently waiting to see how these new ones do. I love your videos. I have learned so much from watching. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge. I am in zone 4B, Northern Ontario, Canada

[@tomsmith2013]

Great video! Thank you! I think I'm going with the "Firelight" for a hedge along my driveway in Rochester, NY!

You aminizing ‼️Thank you for sharing your so much love on gardening. 😊 ❤️ 🦋🇨🇦🌷

[@joannetullini6814]

I have over 50 hydrangea running from endless summer, blushing brides, firelight, invincibel, limelight, oakleaf, various lacecaps, etc. All wonderful. However, I have three hydrangea that bloom very early and very strong. Huge flowers, substantial leaves, bloom all season. They are called Nantucket Blue. By far the most impressive and reliable hydrangea. Would like to see more of these in the garden centers. They are an outstanding performer. Flower right through to fall. I'm in Zone 7.

[@carlalakins]

Joanne Tullini Do you keep the oakleaf hydrangeas compact or tall and wide? Thank you for your help with any pruning tips for oakleaf.

[@DoctorWhoMakeup]

Because of you I added both a limelight hydrangea and pinky winky (in tree form) to my garden. As well as 3 purple hydrangeas (I cant remember the name) to start a small hedge by the fence. I can’t wait to see how well they do this year! 💜🌸

[@cherylanderson3340]

Yum! How exciting to learn there are several new & improved types to pick from. I once lived where there were some large Pee Gee Hydrangea. I'd prune the long branches coming out at the top, in late winter, / early spring, as I recall...back to about 6". From each cut stem, several new branches would emerge, into a spectacular fountain of fresh branches with large, ovate smooth leaves, atop tall, old, woody stems. They were lovely even then, but once the blossoms appeared, even more lovely. I rarely see those types anymore. They were a very popular type in the 40s & 50s, when those had likely been planted. I'd always wanted to plant one here, but never did. Now, today, you showed a lovely group to pick from, including one which has a similar pink tinged panicle - and a few others I'd enjoy, like the one which turns a deep pink...& love the lime colored types too!!! I'm looking forward to seeing your lime hued hedge! The blossoms of the Pee Gees were huge panicles which began a greenish tinged cream color in spring, which turn all creamy by summer. In late summer or early fall, they developed a lovely pink tinge. I'd cut them to dry. Just a few would form huge bouquets. I'd put them in large, heavy vases so they wouldn't topple over, & let the water in the vase be taken up a few times, but within a week or so, I'd let the water eventually evaporate.This would retain the colors as they were at the stage at which I'd picked them, so I'd go back over the next few days to select a few with a bit more deeply pink tinged panicles for variety. I'd also taken smaller clusters from the panicles to add to a dried flower on grapevine wreath. They still added dimension & charm to the wreath after they'd turned a soft brown. They were spectacular in a large basket atop an armoire, or to add a simple elegance to the dining room table for several months before they finally turned brownish, but still remained lovely bouquets.The ones which were allowed to brown on the shrub were a delight all winter - even when laden with snow. Here, I have - or had 2 older ones. One is a fairly compact type with very round blue balls, about 6" across , which without any tweaking done to my 6.4 mildly acidic Z5 soil, to attain that pretty blue, with the smooth leaves. It can be pruned in spring, as it can bloom on new wood. There also was ( and may still be) an old fashioned "Lace Cap" type, which could be more pink if left on it's own, or quite blue if I added Aluminum Sulfate to the soil, which I never did. One year I top dressed with a sprinkling of manure & compost mix, added ( but not sure if it was in the fall or the spring) & when it bloomed, it was mottled, with some bluish & some pinkish inflorescences. Last year, a guy who was cleaning up some dead branches & saplings also cut down my very old Tree Peony & my Lace Cap Hydrangea!!! Will be looking to see if it returns this spring. I love them but they really need a moisture retentive soil, lots of water & some may require shade from the midday sun. If they wilt in the heat, they will bounce back if watered, but they need to be in a place whee you can keep your eye on them, & a mulch would surely help to keep the roots cooler & to retain more moisture. Those old, established Pee Gees myst've had deeper roots & larger root systems, since I they seemed to hold up well in the heat & periods of drought. They were planted on the northeast front corner of the sunroom, so their roots were not overly exposed to the passing sun, & the top growth just got morning sun & a bit of midday sun, By 1 or 2 PM, they were partially in shade & by 3 PM, shaded by the house. That could make all the difference - where they're planted, I mean - in in dry areas or in a fast draining gritty soil. There likely was some underground moisture there, based upon the location of the house - which is in an area where there were lovely cataracts with groundwater running down the hill, & we were at the base of that hill. Maybe the Pee Gee are just more drought tolerant though too, as they're more like small trees, with woody stems.

I was not a garden person and now bought 3 hydrangeas and planted them. I plan to plant more plants.

I am so ready for Spring, I keep coming back watching these videos as a sort of 'mood' to start my day with the excitement of getting ready for Spring to Sprung already :) I just got out my seeds yesterday and I think I'm going to plant up quite a few trays of petunias. Excited to try them from seed this year and see what happens. It was actually you who brought me back to Pentunias. I sort of had gone off them, but seeing all your planters with then so inspired me, I got a few flats last year and now I'm hooked again! And of course I'm So excited to add more hydrangeas. We, here in coastal New England, have had a love affair with the hydrangea for years. We are lucky to have the soil that makes them the unbelievable blue that looks almost unreal (I have had guests ask if I painted them before). Now, that they are more gaining even more popularity I am SO excited for all the varieties coming out! Come on Spring!

@@mylovelycrazylife My variety set buds on old wood, so we only cut back to the first buds we'd like to save for the following season. We've just accepted the dead stalks, but I love cutting the dried flowers for Christmas/Autumn decor. Good luck.

She has a video called “How to ID Your Hydrangea” where she talks about when to prune different varieties so you have blooms the next year. It was SO confusing until she explained all the different varieties!

Thank you so much Laura, I am new in gardening and your videos have been key in my learning process. Today just purchased my fire light. I am very happy

[@michellelegaspi5931]

This was so informative and helpful! And I’ll take one of each, please and thank you! Lol 🙌🏼

I've planted my first Incrediballs, beautiful! They flop in the rain! Will the stems become stronger as they grow? What can I do, peony cages, tie them to the fence behind them? Help!! Beautiful videos and so helpfull thanks.

Your videos are an endless source of information and inspiration. Thank you so much for everything you do.

I want the "Little Quick Fire" Hydrangea

[@marymcfarland717]

I like a couple of these. I like the little lime and the last one the mauvette. Thank you for sharing this.

Laura! You didn't go over which of these Hydrangeas can have their blooms turn to blue by adding aluminum sulfate to the soil! I always get confused by which ones can be treated in this manner. I like hydrangea but I do NOT like pink (or mauve or magenta) in a garden. I also don't like a lot of white blooms (too boring, IMO). Otherwise, very thorough. :)

[@jessicabuben9353]

None of these hydrangeas do that. You're thinking of the hydrangea macrophylla I think. They will go either blue or pink depending on the acidity of the soil. They are also called mophead hydrangeas.

[@Bamboo4U2]

@@jessicabuben9353 Thanks, but I've seen non-mophead hydrangeas in blue (they were the lacecap variety), but thanks again for the macrophylla variety. Edit: I found the wiki page. There are mophead and lacecap (and other varieties) hydrangea macrophylla that can be changed to blue. Thanks! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrangea_macrophylla

[@jessicabuben9353]

@@Bamboo4U2 No problem! Lacecaps are actually in the macrophylla family too, just with a different type of flower head. I've had my eye on one with variegated leaves for a long time! Just waiting for a spot for it!

[@Jack-oc2xq]

Jessica explained it perfectly, there are three nain groups of hydrangeas, Arborescens, Paniculata and Macrophylla, both mopheads and lacecaps are in the macrophylla group

[@summermoongarden]

She didn't discuss Hydrangea Macrophylla, which is the only class of hydrangeas that do change from blue to pink depending on soil acidity/alkalinity.
