Thanks! Mom is a ‘champion’ pruner. She can’t pass any bush without ‘snipping’ away to get them into a ‘controlled’ rounded shape. She often prunes when she shouldn’t & cuts off future blooms. At the old house, the azaleas & pomegranate bush didn’t bloom due to being pruned at the wrong time. I have threatened to bury her with a pair of Fiskar pruners on her chest. I am going to print off the pruning guide & see that she sticks to it!
These bushes get 6-10’ wide, per the card that came with them. We are allowing 9’, which should be sufficient space.
You’ll be surprised at how quickly they grow and how big they can get!
I REALLY need some Hydrangea around here! They’re my favorite shrub and I had six varieties at my other farm. Time to hit some end-of-season nursery sales! :)
