How to get the longest vase life from your cut Hydrangea Blooms

[@janiceshea1129]

Thank you so much I’m taking a huge bundle for my son’s wedding I was so worried and after I watched you clip I feel so much better thank you

[@jcking6785]

Stunning hydrangeas!!! I’m jealous... Great info.

[@jeanne2515]

I have recently found your channel and already learned so many things by watching a few videos. Thank you so much for the great tips and I will continue watching and looking at your old videos.

[@annettesmouse4409]

Thanks for all the great information! I tried the boiling water tip that you gave on three of my hydrangea blooms that had wilted a bit after being in a vase for awhile. It is amazing how well that works! They look totally restored!

[@NorthlawnFlowerFarmandGardens]

Isn't it amazing?!?! It's like a Hydrangea magic trick!

[@Carla-fq6kw]

I tried this trick but I’m noticing that the stem turns a dark brown where it was submerged in hot water. Is that normal?

[@ellemason2055]

Boiling water? Wouldn’t that cook the flower?

[@joyceannalexander6407]

Great tips. I will try I love fresh flowers in my house and I have this plant. Thanks for sharing.

[@Trthsker24]

I am overwhelmed with the desire to say hyDRANGE- ah.😄

[@DenyseBre]

Grateful for this video. Over night my store bought bouquet went limp and wilted. Cut them as instructed. Put the stems in boiled hot water for 1 minute which opened them up, then soaked them in the water bath for an hour and they perked back to full bloom!

[@GardenDoodles]

We’ve successfully used the hot water method many times and are always amazed that they perk right back up. We wrap the blooms in paper towels to catch the steam.

[@yoder1951]

The floral arrangement (& pic of it!) is stunning!

[@NorthlawnFlowerFarmandGardens]

[@karunadevidiller5761]

Thank you so much for this information about how to keep your hydrangeas looking fresh.

[@enac1]

[@melindawolfe4348]

Thanks!

[@tingczhao]

Awesome. Great tips! Thank you for your beautiful smile and wonderful tips!

[@karenno]

Damn. The tips in this video are solid. Awesome post!

[@colleenboozer2921]

How do you trim so all of your blooms are so nicely placed close together like that? I have a very large hydrangea, but the blooms are all over the place, and not in a nice cluster like yours.

[@thesearethedays9398]

Wow I had no idea it was such an involved process! Lol I’ll just buy the faux I think and leave my real ones on the plant 😂❤

[@efbu1678]

Beautiful! I'd like to know how to take care of Hydrangea in a pot? Should I cut the big leaves to have more flowers?

[@nononan8237]

the most helpful ingo i have ever received nononan

[@peluszek]

hello, do I use warm or cold water to give them a bath ? and it's an amazing video, thank you so much for the great tips.

[@Bear_Master]

Great information. Beautiful cats also!

[@hameedahudda6338]

How many blooms approximately do we get from a hydrangea in a pot in one year? Can we get new stems on hydrangeas and more flowers

[@PegsGarden]

These were great tips, thanks for sharing :0)

[@pamd1861]

Great..thanks Danielle!

[@lisaleray7173]

Thank you so much! This is so very helpful.

[@GrannysGarden]

[@marisascott4788]

Thank you so much...I needed this info! 🙏🏼

[@maryannmccandless1084]

great tips. thanks

[@lorrainecourtney4589]

Thanks for the tips 😁 would this pertain to lilacs also? My friend gave me some gorgeous ones and by the next day they were so sad looking 😣

[@marifesowinski6960]

Thanks for your tips how to take care cut hydrangeas. Can I make a wedding bouquet of hydrangeas? Please give me some tips?

[@jameswilmot4537]

Lovely Hydrangea plants there. I've grown cuttings for Hydrangea, Hebe, Buddleia, Spirea & Lavender. Most of these are on my channel header and I made a new Hebe video which shows these cuttings on their journey into big shrubs/plants. Happy Growing :)

[@ScrubLord92]

Thanks for the tips

[@brigettescottageplants946]

Thanks this was a fantastic help 👍

[@ikillprettythingz7947]

I think I bought a total of 10 new hydrengea this year. I planted a hedge of them in my backyard. I'm looking for cityline mars and L. A dreaming hydrengea 😊 I'm OBSEESSSED

[@Fiorinudi]

what do you add to the water when displaying?

[@ruthnarendran8775]

Do you include any foliage in your bunches and what do you use. Love your videos btw.

[@NorthlawnFlowerFarmandGardens]

Hi Ruth! Yes, I especially love forsythia and ninebark for foliage. Boxwood, abelia, witchhazel, beech, and viburnum are also great.

[@tasst2674]

Thank you. What temperature should the water bath be?

[@raneefranjakararodriguez3284]

Thanks for this helpful info. I have a few hydrangea flower cuttings given by a friend, don’t know how to keep them longer in my vase.

[@rachelletaylor4215]

Thank you so much for the tips! What brand of hydrangea are the ones that were the blue that you featured the most. I didn't know you could re-hydrate and bring back the bloom!

[@NorthlawnFlowerFarmandGardens]

Hi Rachelle! It's Let's Dance Rave Hydrangea - www.provenwinners.com/plants/hydrangea/lets-dance-rave-reblooming-hydrangea-hydrangea-macrophylla

[@PolydactylPolyCat]

Great! Thanks

[@MyCottageGarden_Natalie]

Thank you for your tips. I saw you have cats, my cats are always pooping in my flower garden. Do you have any tips to stop it? Thanks

[@HamptonRoadsLiving]

What about care tips for potted hydrangeas?

[@ms.moniquebrown6754]

Thank you for sharing.

[@jenniferng6889]

Hi Danielle! When you change the water in your arrangements, do you continue to add flower food? Wasn’t sure if you feed them just upon harvest. Thank you! 🥰

[@sheilamiret6536]

Yes. Continue to feed them. It will amaze you how long your blooms will continue to last.

[@joturley4184]

What kind of food?

[@sharonoleary9935]

How do you dry them? Thanks

[@NorthlawnFlowerFarmandGardens]

Hi Sharon! It's best to harvest hydrangeas for drying toward the end of the growing season when the blooms are starting to change in color and become papery. Different hydrangeas turn different colors as they are ready to harvest for dried production. Once the bloom has turned papery, turns color, and less moisture is present in the bloom, harvest the stems and remove all the leaves. Place in a vase filled with about 2 inches of water and let the water naturally evaporate. The hydrangeas will dry in the vase.

[@mygardeninbloom]

Great information! 🌻

[@patriciakumnick2925]

Thank u so helpful

[@Stauffer-fs8kz]

GORGEOUS!!! Love your Blue and Purple Hydrangeas!! Mine are all pink because of our soil acidity being low.....I grew up in WA state, and they were always Blue there. It is such a lovely color! Did you condition your soil to change the color? THANKS!

[@NorthlawnFlowerFarmandGardens]

Hey there! I didn't - even our older big leafs are blue. Although one always seem to have two or three pink blooms on the plant!

[@Stauffer-fs8kz]

@@NorthlawnFlowerFarmandGardens Thanks for your quick reply--as usual! Do you use wood chips for mulch? That will do it too.

[@NorthlawnFlowerFarmandGardens]

@@Stauffer-fs8kz I do!

[@Stauffer-fs8kz]

@@NorthlawnFlowerFarmandGardens Funny! Maybe I will have to mulch mine with wood chips too! ;)

[@Bamboo4U2]

pH low: blue blooms pH high: pink blooms

[@sallyderusha4053]

So after conditioning, I recut at an angle and vertically again, regardless of the use of the alum?

[@marketbasket320]

Great tips. Can’t wait to try these with my blooms this season.

[@winiver77]

I brought a beautiful blue hydrangea.. The shop told me to cut stem then spray the head of the flower! While this worked for the first day... The third day I sprayed the head again.. It didn't like it and has started to wilt so has the leaves!! Is it a case of you just do this once? Do you really spray the head with water!? as I was told this flower drinks from the top too! And lastly which of your water methods would save my expensive cut flower? Thks!

[@nupee1999]

Hi! I have a hydrangea bush that looks so similar to yours! I’m not sure if you mentioned this but after I bring them inside in a vase will I need to spray them with any insect repellent?

[@soundofsilence21]

if my hydrangea blooms have some dirt on them (from drooping branches), should I just gently wash the blooms in cold water after cutting?

[@BlakeNottke]

Does cutting the fresh hydrangeas ruin the plant?

[@cynthiaborden4209]

Wow thanks for the great information. Do you ever encounter insects in your flowers?

[@NorthlawnFlowerFarmandGardens]

Hi there! Yes I do. I usually turn the blooms upside down and give them a gentle shake and the bugs fall out.

[@בטיבןמרגי-ב4מ]

Thank you,for your nice and beatiful explaintion. Love it💕💗 betty from lsrael. Jrusalem💝

[@HamptonRoadsLiving]

So helpful

[@ithirstyforknowledge]

Can you please tell me why I'm only getting lush green leaves but bloom on only one branch?

[@오규영-o8p]

Thank you ! 🍎🍍🍊🍑🍇🍒🍅👍👍👍

[@growingcrazy4481]

What is your favorite varieties for cutting? I want to plant one or two but I don’t know which one to choose

[@deborahburgart561]

A florist trick is to cut stem as you show then place hydrangea in about 3 cups of water with 1 T of alum powder mixed in

[@traceyknorr7080]

I tried the boiling water and they all turned brown. 😔 Better to test this on one flower before you do it to your whole bouquet.
