PRO tips for Hydrangeas in Pots and Containers // Utah Florist Hydrangeas

Описание: Are florist hydrangeas really worth growing as annuals in containers? For me—absolutely yes. In this video, I’ll show you why bigleaf hydrangeas (Hydrangea macrophylla) are my go-to thriller plant for instant curb appeal, long bloom time, and beautiful color options—even in my harsh Utah climate (Zone 7a high desert).

🌿 I’m sharing tips for keeping them happy in bright shade, how to adjust their color in alkaline soil, why I skip overwintering altogether, and my secrets for using self-watering planters to prevent crispy leaves in dry heat.

Plus: I’ll give you a sneak peek at a new cascading hydrangea that I might be adding to my planters this season!
