Should all my hydrangeas be in bloom by now?
Yes. Blame global warming.
When hydrangeas don’t bloom (all types of hydrangeas), it’s almost always due to one or more of the following reasons.
1. You pruned at the wrong time.
2. Your hydrangea isn’t getting enough sun.
3. The flower buds were killed by a late winter freeze.
4. Your hydrangea doesn’t like where it’s growing.
5. Your hydrangea hasn’t bloomed yet this year, but it will.
They should be in bloom or bloomed-out by now; yes. UNLESS, any were fed too much Nitrogen fertilizer (lawn service) and the flower buds went to leaf instead. OR they were cut back in spring and the flower buds were cut off.
Did you or a lawn service ‘deadhead’ any plants this spring? Or apply any fertilizers?
