CARING FOR ENDLESS SUMMER HYDRANGEAS - COACH'S NEWS

H. 'Endless Summer'

Endless Summer Hydrangeas are quite forgiving and will not suffer if left unpruned or pruned at the wrong time. In fact, young, recently planted shrubs are best left alone. Unlike other Hydrangeas, your Endless Summer will bloom on both old and new growth, branches that grew last year and the new branches from this year. Another unique feature is that this hydrangea will continue to set buds and bloom throughout the season; deadheading the spent flowers will encourage this.

Fertilizing
To encourage flowering, the recommended fertilizer should be low in nitrogen and high in phosphorus. For instance an N-P-K ratio of 10-30-10 would be ideal.
