When should you prune panicle hydrangeas?
Late winter or early spring is the ideal time, just before the new growth begins.

How to prune panicle hydrangeas properly?

  • Remove faded flowers: Cut off the old blooms to encourage fresh, new growth.
  • Shape the plant: Prune the stems by about one-third to create a compact and balanced structure.
  • Clear out weak stems: Remove thin, damaged, or crossing branches to allow the plant to focus on healthy growth.
