4 Year Update on Our 'Incrediball' Hydrangea Hedge! 🌿

[@Peoniesandpinks]

The updates are much appreciated and I would love to see more of these

[@PerfectPride]

Laura is the reason I’ve fallen in love with hydrangeas. Always liked them but now I really appreciate their beauty and variety. Planted my first two this year. Hope to have more as the years go by. Such lovely plants.

[@manasamanohar4750]

Which ones? And how did you make up your mind? I'm so confused on which ones to get.

Laura is the reason why my bank account is aways empty 😂

[@darcygillan3098]

For some reason, hydrangeas were never my favorite plant until I started watching Laura. I planted my first 2 hydrangeas last year and a third one this year. They are all doing well so far, and I'm hoping to enjoy them for many years to come.

[@donnagent6046]

Love this! A short highlight of one plant or a small area is a wonderful idea!

[@pamelagardill4127]

In a recent video you commented that you didn’t want to have to rescue plants anymore but I have watched you express how tickled you are when you show us plants you have saved. Good job! Proud of y’all.

[@mollieparks3397]

I call mine my Diva's. When it gets very hot they wilt even though I know they've had plenty of water.... So dramatic... I always think of them as a group of Southern Aunties all dolled up for a summer party and complaining about the heat... then evening rolls around and they spring back. Drama Queens. I love them so.

[@angiephillips5381]

Love it!! She mentioned a second drip for daily watering… I have mine in full sun and they didn’t get enough water. Wilted then lost some leaves. Still going through transplant shock probably but wondering what time of day she sets that timer for their own drip? Mid day? With drip I worry the heat of the water in the irrigation tubing would stress the already wilting plant.

[@stadlerlisa3468]

@@angiephillips5381 I live in 7b, lots of sun and heat. I water them on the morning and if they wilt during the day s second drink in late afternoon

[@kristinebailey6554]

I bought a pink one in Michigan that's name actually was Diva, in spite of tremendous care by me it died within two years. It was gorgeous sparkly pink.

[@barbie3166]

@mollieparks3397 I know that this post is 2 years old but I'm sure hoping you see this. I've got a question regarding the hydrangeas. I'm in 7a and am so afraid of planting hydrangeas. Are yours in full sun? Are they protected from the hottest part of the day? My house faces south so much of my yard is full sun. I do have some trees that I can plant them under but it wouldn't be the ideal placement. Anyway, I'm just hoping to hear your thoughts on this. Thanks for your help in advance! 🙂

[@maddiebarry5546]

This is amazing!!! 🤣🤣

[@jennifermichael9215]

I really like seeing updates of plants after a few years. It helps those of us who lack the experience and imagination to picture what something will look like after a few years. Those Incrediballs are gorgeous!

[@GardenHappy]

I agree because plants always look good at first right when they are planted. The test is how they look after a few months. Great comment. 👍

[@amoijoy573]

A second video? How delightful! I lapped it up so fast! Thank you Laura & Aaron!

[@kathy8832]

An extra video from Laura & Aaron!! Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful hydrangeas.

[@tracymeakings9956]

I’m addicted to white hydrangeas! They have a very classy look to them and brighten up any garden , thank you for the update 🌺❤️

[@whtfishbayful]

I put in about 50 of these hydrangea. They’re so incredible! The thing that really took me by surprise is that when you have that many blooming they smell AMAZING! I had no idea! Just thought I’d share 😊

[@doesilky]

2 in one day. I feel special so special just like the hydrangeas. Thank L&A for the extra video. Pray that your mom is doing okay.

[@derrickcricket152]

Hi 😊👋

[@sydneykasmar]

Thanks for this update. It really shows how four years after planting a perrenial you get the harvest of your patience.

[@joycemeinhardt425]

Love this short focus on a single plant! Seeing the progression from a “rescue” to a stunning focal point in the garden in only 4 years is so encouraging! Thank you so much for this insight into Incrediball hydrangeas!

[@tinaclauson5238]

Beautiful!!! I've been planting more hydrangeas the past 2 years due to the information gathered from your videos. Thank you ! 😊

[@kaymack5304]

Ahhh…stressful evening and I tune in to a surprise episode of Garden Answer and all my problems melt away. So enjoyable to focus on something I can change. My garden. You guys make my day!

[@TonyaGreenwood]

I planted a dredge of hydrangeas last year and I can’t wait for them to look as glorious as these do! Thank you for always inspiring us to do more in our own gardens despite every thing going on in the world. God Bless you and your family!

[@saraphal813]

I had just treated myself to the same hydrangea and of course I got it not knowing where I could squeeze this in my tiny back yard. Spent a few days sizing it up and trying to decide where it should go and how much space I needed at full maturity. I don’t fully believe in the tag. To kill some time I decided to turn on KZbin and there was Laura with a recap. Couldn’t be more perfect. Thank you!

[@juliafiore120]

Wow, nice little bonus video, Laura. Thanks! Just as I was about to go plan an Oak leaf Hydrangea 🤣. It can wait…

[@risalangdon9883]

Laura, I'm not sure what words to use lol. Glorious, spectacular, beautiful etc etc etc 😀. I remember back when you first showed us planting them. They've all growed up as Benjamin would say hahaha 😆.

[@woodydietz7512]

Laura, I planted two hydrangea plants last fall from the discount rack at a garden store. One has tripled in size and is blooming in pink and blue. The other one just “woke up” and is leafing out. My $2 dead plant is a testament to your show. I’ll try it and see. Thanks. I’ve got beans and sunflowers 🌻 and Dahlias too. Easy and rewarding! 🪴. S. Jersey Shore gardener

[@robingrunzweig1880]

i remember the privets and roses and oh my word! look at those!! just stunning! can’t wait to see them with the new walkway!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰 thanks for the surprise video! 🥰❤️

[@sbrowny130]

Your Hydrangeas are so beautiful! My all time favorite flower. I love to enjoy them & then cut and enjoy them all winter in dried flower arrangements.

[@katiedc8239]

Those are really beautiful hydrangeas! The contrast between the dark leaves and those brilliant white blooms is pretty amazing. Faith in planting, yes!

[@tiffanyroberts5993]

For the love put this on your main channel too!!! Absolutely gorgeous! 😍😍😍

[@dreed144]

I feel like I have only been watching for 2 years yet when you showed the old hedges n roses I was like yep, I've been watching since then... where has the time gone. All the things I have learned, yet all the thing I am still learning in each video is endless!!!

[@andreabenson2491]

So funny I'm sitting here watering my panicle hydrangeas I have ten of them throughout my space - and as I am giving each twenty minutes on soaker, I picked up the phone and saw this video. Perfect timing lol. I have a row of seven little limes and they are just starting to bloom! I love hydrangeas lots of blooms for a long time!

[@skyoneplusone2874]

I like your hair!!Love yourself while you are busy with everything else in the life! Keep planting

[@phyto.sapien4022]

Stunning!! What a transformation. Thanks for the bonus video 🙂

[@Carols64]

Love it ! Great job Laura! It’s all the love you give them! 😀

[@judyingram4846]

So beautiful and lush. I just love them so much.❤️ Laura you can grow anything from seeds and plants. Green hands and feet. I just love your channel, you have taught me so much. Just keep doing what your doing. You, Aaron, Benjamin and Samantha Grace are such a beautiful little family. Love y'all much.💙❤️💙❤️

[@theacripps8099]

Ooooh I love these update videos!!! Such a great idea. Thanks for this!! Your Incrediballs do look amazing and it’s remarkable how resilient they are! I live in the Hamptons and hydrangeas are a must-have for any garden here. They also remind me of Nantucket, Cape Cod and of course Laura’s garden!! We will eventually have Incrediball whites lining our driveway…right now we have Incrediball Blush loving life tucked under 30+ year old Rhododendron in our front yard!!

[@kimbradley1292]

I'm no expert by any means, but I have 7 hydrangea in my front garden and people often stop and make a comment or take a picture! I'm pleased as punch that I grew these plants, I absolutely love them! 🇬🇧

[@asaldanapr]

Awesome! Goes to show that faith and patience and a bit of fertilizer can do. I love white hydrangeas but in my zone 9b they struggle a lot.

[@julieescala2610]

Thanks for sharing. Have you had luck with any variety? I’m in 10a and struggling to find one that can withstand the heat.

[@AttnDefDis_]

These updates on specific plants are awesome! I just watched the one on the Bloomerang lilac yesterday and was thinking, "I wish they did more of these." Wish granted. Thanks.

[@wilmasgarden3098]

What a beautiful surprise! They have definitely recovered and are doing spectacular.

[@kimbar11]

This is the best this hedge has looked! Love it!

[@CindDJo]

Stuff like this always gives me such hope. I remember when you planted those babies and I had my doubts. I'm so glad to see I was wrong. Beautiful!!

What a beautiful surprise! Thank you for sharing the gorgeous Hydrangea hedge,

Has it already been 4 years!!! My how time flys and yes they look amazing!!!

[@cc3kidsl8ter78]

I love hydrangeas! They're so pretty and fluffy when they're in full bloom

[@summergirl15]

Thank you for all the information on the hydrangeas! It's fun learning w/you. Loved the before & now pictures. Great progress in just 4 yrs!

[@beasleyben9191]

I love that area now! Those Hydrangeas are beautiful!

[@bluesky7226]

I remember when you planted them. They look fabulous! 💝

[@gardeningonthewestforkwith8994]

Enjoyed the plant specific update! Hedge is lovely and the almost broken plant thriving!! Always look for the imperfect plant given TLC could be best performer!💪☺️

[@lisadawidziak4104]

Absolutely stunning!!

[@mariafolch8067]

This is so timely!! We just had lots of rain and my Limelight hydrangea is huge and the blooms seem to droop. I like how you explain why they droop and how to care for them. Thanks Laura!!

[@observer4497]

They are absolutely Beautiful!! I planted 14 along the new flower bed I installed about 2 months ago in the front of our home and they are all doing fantastic..I am now in the process of installing drip irrigation to them. Thank you so very much Laura and Aaron for teaching me how to garden… 🙌❤️

[@risalangdon9883]

And greatly like this little update clip while they are looking their best.

Hi 😊👋

[@sandyg8794]

Hi Laura! It is nice seeing how wonderful the hydrangeas are doing. They are beautiful! I enjoyed this short clip with only one plant highlighted. Thank you so much for sharing!

[@Peachy08]

I have dozens of hydrangeas! There are some varieties that will bloom in shade. I have several. Then I have my sun loving hydrangeas like limelight. Love them all!

[@kims4529]

How fun to see these now! I remember when you planted them but had forgotten about their rough start.

[@ArtByLaCo]

A second video today! What a treat! My eyes lit up when I got the notification 🤩

[@amber_bloom]

Thank you for the single plant update video! I love this!

[@jnbond]

They look amazing!!! Wish the deer would leave mine alone! Thank you for this short video update! I really enjoyed the showcasing of what it looked like before and then the now and just on one plant! Please do more like this! God Bless!!

[@samanthab3292]

Absolutely true when it comes to clearance plants! A lot of them are very resilient. 🌺🥰

[@RevAcres01]

Enjoyed the video I like the random plant talk. Planted Incrediballs 5 yrs ago and every year I’m amazed. Thanks

[@kimberleyfrasquillo3684]

👋🌞Good afternoon, Laura! YAAAAY, a double video day!!!👏👏🥰🤗 👋Hi Aaron! Your white hydrangeas are soooo STUNNING! Great maintenance information! Thank you for sharing and for a bonus second video today! Have a Blessed and Beautiful day everyone! Kimberley F in Avondale, AZ (Zone 9b) 🌞🌵💞

[@kristidaniel3164]

The progress videos are so encouraging! I’ve been really enjoying these updates lately. Thank you 🙏

[@karenross3457]

You have inspired me to go out and dig up my straggly hydrangeas that are about 20 years old. There are so many beautiful varieties now.

[@sandraengstrand2784]

The hydrangeas look glorious, thanks for showing us!! 💕😍

[@MrsDallimore08]

I remember you planting these, gosh I’ve been watching you guys for a long time, since 2016 when my gardening journey began,so worth it, thanks Laura and Aaron xxxxx

[@MajelCats]

Annabelle vs Incrediball is no competition. Proven Winner’s Incrediball is AMAZING!! Like “I believe in witches and wizards” AMAZING!!

[@brandie4barton239]

Wow! They look amazing. You have shown me that patience is required to see a plants full potential and it gives me hope everytime I see one of your maturing plants.

[@eberlinschwinn5634]

Beautiful. The bright white is gorgeous.

[@christophernorris8064]

Great update! From a "damaged rescue" to that beauty--WOW! Many of us scour the bargain rack for cheap plants needing rescue. Our local 'big box' had plants for $1-$3-$5 recently...too good to pass up when on a strict budget in these trying times. I would love to see a video series about how to best make them thrive--would probably REALLY help us all. Maybe a "damage" garden you could walk us through? Take whatever you can find on sale, then nurse them to life? Thanks for all you teach us! :)

[@deezahm9143]

👏🏻Thank you for this second video! ☕️Coffee with you in the morning and a cocktail with you tonight. 🍹. The hydrangeas are spectacular! Thank you Laura and Aaron 🌸🌼🌻🌺

[@suannetoonk57]

Love, love, love this unexpected update post. I vote to keep 'em comin'. :-) Thanks!

I love to see the updates. I remember when you planted these.

[@anitahadley2871]

Glad to see how well they are doing. They look amazing!

I love the update videos! I’ve learned so much from them… thank you! Praying for your mom!

[@marinbandel2574]

Good evening Laura! Two in one day. Love these incredible plants! Hugs from N.C..❤️

[@ebbrown8771]

I appreciate the single item videos so much! It’s super easy to search and use in my garden as a resource. Thank you so much.

[@DynamicBailey]

I just got some of these from Costco yesterday. They are so beautiful. I got compliments on them as I was going through the store then walking out. Thank you for all the information.

[@clintreynolds9632]

I love all your hydrangeas Laura. I just planted a limelight today 7-14-22. It’s in a spot that gets shade up until about 2 and full sun up until 7-7:30 and I live just south of Fort Worth Tx. And I bought some purplish pink echinaceas also! I’ve learned a lot from you and I already knew a lot but listening to you I was like dang she makes me look like I don’t know anything. I love your videos and look forward to them. Have a blessed day

[@derrickcricket152]

Hi 👋😊

[@TarakJaman-s4f]

When you stand in the white flower garden n you smile as they're bloomed you look really beautiful.

[@liliromero4910]

They are amazing! So pretty!

[@SenterStuff]

Lovely! Thanks for sharing videos like this one. I love seeing what the area looked like before, then as you are changing it, then what it looks like now! Amazing! I, also, have fallen in love with hydrangeas because of you, Laura! Have planted many in my own garden and some in my mother’s garden. Thanks! ~Cassandra Senter, Zone 9A

[@ncflowergirl1446]

Yeah my annabelles are napping from the few rain storms we have had. I love them and they only look bad from the backside which is from our front porch. I really think my flowers are bigger though. 😍 I do think about switching them out to incrediballs but then I think next year is a do over.

[@DreamWithCaroline]

💜🎶Good day Garden Answer... Beautiful.. Thanks for sharing . .. it's always good to see .. how it will look ! Great video 💜🎶🇨🇦

[@charisamartin2152]

Our limelight hydrangea was totally purchased as a result of watching Laura's hydrangea video where she explained the kinds of hydrangeas. We've had it since 2019 and it's already over 6 ft tall! Even had an unfortunate incident with ground clear in 2020...but it bounced back like a champ! Thanks, Laura! 😃

[@Singlelady1601]

I agree. I have bought clearance plants that look dead but when they are trimmed and watered consistently, they recover. Love my Annabelle hydrangea and others

[@joaniechristensen8376]

We have had these in our garden for several years . They get the morning sun and are thriving beautifully. The only down that I find that you didn’t mention, is that they expand by sending out shoots under the ground and come up and make more hydrangeas, which is great, if you have room for it. But if not , you have to chop those roots off or dig them out and plant them elsewhere in the garden. I have did that many times in the Spring and we have Incrediball Hydrangeas growing all over our property.😊

[@Tricebbt632]

4 year wow

[@tinaroller1741]

Absolutely beautiful!! 🤍

[@patricianelson5733]

Live in the Mojave desert so no hydrangeas for me but I live vicariously thru Laura with her gorgeous hydrangeas!

[@joanwalters4741]

What a treat to see. I remember when you planted them.... a success story for sure👏🏻👏🏻🌟🌟❤️

[@jsaysyay]

can't believe that it's been four years since those were planted, wow. also being from massachusetts, i really need to start planting more hydrangeas, they're quite the big thing here, every other house has a hedge of neon blue blooms
