Floral hydrangea or landscape hydrangea? Floral hydrangea have big blooms and meant really for only one season. You’ll see these out at grocery stores this time of year and they’re really meant to last one season 4-8 weeks. So we do not use them in your summer planters. The landscape hydrangea can sometimes be used in very large containers but then they can go right into your garden beds. There are SO many different types of landscape hydrangea with varying lighting and pruning requirements but they will come back every year. We typically use floral hydrangea just in the spring planters to get that big bold boost of color for your planters. Unsure what you have? Landscape hydrangea will have more leaves and a more developed woody stem structure. You can also check the label!
