When should you plant hydrangeas in pots?

Late summer is the best time to plant hydrangeas in pots. Get a larger container and humus rich soil and get started!

Then plant it in the pot and fill it up to the brim with potting soil. Leave the hydrangea in the pot in a sunny to partially shaded spot for a week so that it takes root during this time.

Important care tips for hydrangeas in pots

To make caring for these attractive flowering plants easier for you, we present an overview of the most important tips:

1) Water hydrangeas in the pot regularly

You have to water these beauties vigorously, because they love a lot of water. It is best to keep the soil moist without waterlogging. Incidentally, this can cause the roots to rot and therefore kill the entire potted plant. If the heat is persistent, the potted hydrangeas must be watered in the morning and in the evening. Hydrangeas have large green leaves through which a large amount of water evaporates during the day. That’s why you have to water it regularly. The plastic bottle trick can also help a lot on very hot days.

Regular watering is the be-all and end-all of proper flower care.

2) When should you fertilize and cut the potted hydrangeas?

Only fertilize your potted hydrangeas before they bloom, that is, in May and June. During this period, they need additional nutrients to form beautiful flower spikes and umbels. Use the special fertilizer for hydrangeas or take a rhododendron fertilizer. It is also suitable for potted hydrangeas. Pruning hydrangeas in pots or tubs depends on their species. The panicle hydrangea, for example, can be cut back heavily in spring and will thank you with more lush flowers in summer. The peasant hydrangea, on the other hand, does not want to be pruned deeply. With this species, you only have to remove frozen or dead shoots in early spring. Only older hydrangeas should be cut back radically so that they rejuvenate.

However, ensure them good winter protection, for example cover the potting soil in the pot with a layer of brushwood. How to protect the plant from frost.
