About This Plant
Plant description
The Original is a mop-head type hydrangea with the unique ability to bloom consistently on both old and new wood. The result is a plant that provides beautiful flowers all summer long. The flowers grow up to 8" in diameter, with pink blooms in alkaline soils and blue blooms in acidic soil. Since The Original blooms on new wood, removal of spent flowers will encourage rebloom.

Our Tips & Recommendations
Watering
Hydrangeas are thirsty plants. Water deeply 2–3 times per week, especially in hot weather. Morning watering is best to prevent leaf scorch.
Soil & Watering
For blue flowers, add aluminum sulfate to acidify soil (pH 5.2–5.5). For pink flowers, add lime to raise pH (6.0–6.2). White varieties don’t change color.
Pruning
Most hydrangeas bloom on old wood — prune right after flowering in summer. Panicle and smooth hydrangeas bloom on new wood and can be pruned in late winter.
