Hi Soleil, I just wanted to give a heads up that the Jetstream oakleaf hydrangea is only hardy down to zone 5 (in the video it's labeled as 3-8). Unfortunately for me I haven't found an oakleaf that's hardy in colder zones! 😢 I've thought about trying one in a protected area since I'm in 4b, somewhat close to the border of 5a, but I haven't found the courage to push my luck just yet 😂
I just wanted to reassure you that you can have an oak leaf hydrangea. I gave some to my cousin (zone 3) and they’re doing great. You just need to make sure you plant it in a spot that’s next to your house where it will get radiant heat from the home in winter. And plant on a side where it’s protected from the winter winds. Like, for example, if the wind normally blows onto the left side of your house, then you would plant it next to the house on the right side. And mulch heavily before winter hits. That way even if on the off chance the top dies, it will come back up from the roots. Good luck 👍
Thank you for sharing. I have a few of them. Roses used be my favorite flower. But I fall in love with Hydrangeas after buying my 1st one. I'm up to 23.❤️❤️❤️
You must be in Hydrangea Heaven right now , every one of them looking beautiful. I will definitely try and propagate some of mine . My Bobos have suffered a bit of burn on the panicles due to our continuing drought conditions, send some rain my way
Soleil, your hydrangeas are simply beautiful! You definitely have a wonderful collection, and I can’t wait to see the fall color on your Oak-leaf hydrangeas. I don't have very many different hydrangeas in my garden, but I like the Lava Lamp Flair best because of how it has performed in my landscape and planters. I bought a couple of new hydrangeas last week which will be fun to watch grow and hopefully bloom next year. I plan to try propagating them for use elsewhere in my yard. I won’t waste money on macrophylla hydrangeas ever again because here in zone 5a, they die back to the ground every year, so I never get blooms (since they bloom on old wood). I hope you have a wonderful week in your garden! ~Margie😊💐🦋
I'm usually envious of Florida and other places that can grow tropical plants, but the hydrangea is one gorgeous plant that we get to enjoy up here in zone 5. Your Diamond Rouge hydrangeas are beautiful, and I hope to plant one or two in my yard someday, maybe this fall. Thanks so much for the tour and the excellent, detailed information, including the sun exposure for each. I also really appreciated that you made a note about illegal propagation.
I have the Berry White too and it’s looking beautiful this year. But I have to say that my Pinky Winky and my Gatsby Gal oak leaf are my favorites! Yours all look lovely.
Thank you for sharing Soleil I have around 40 panicle hydrangeas in my garden that I purchase last summer. They’re doing great can’t wait a few more years so I can divid them. I started this Love for panicle Hydrangeas and I’m addicted. I’m in zone 6b Shiloh, Illinois . Thanks again
Hi Soleil! Every time I think of hydrangeas, I think of you and how you have a great collection. I love the panicles and would like to add more as I expand my gardens in the upcoming years. I really want to try out the panicles such as the strawberry sundae and quick fire. I think the lace-cap panicles are delicate and beautiful. Thank you for your collection video
Loved all the information and seeing the differences of stages in your hydrangeas. Many of mine are in their first and second year so can’t wait to see how mine grow. Also very interested in taking some cuttings so I can add more around the yard. I will have to try that in the spring when I do the trimmings.
Great information! I have several hydrangea varieties but I do like the panicle and oak leaf hydrangeas the best. Thanks for all the great information provided. I'm going to try to propagate some of my hydrangeas now that I see how easy it is.
Love these. Im really enjoying my pinky pinky this year. I fertilized at the right time this year and it has responded so nicely. I also purchased an invincibelle mini mauvette which blooms in pink right off the bat and a little quick fire and they are both happy and doing so well. In front of the house I have 3 bobo petites and they face east but it is just enough morning sun to keep them happy as well. They are in season 2 so it will be fun to see how big they get next year when they start leaping😄
I am obsessed with hydrangeas. How do you winterized your potted hydrangea? I have a limelight in pot a few weeks ago and will be in pot in the winter. Should i do anything to it to prepare for winter?
If you are in Zone 5 or warmer it should do fine over winter. If there is no rain or snow you just need to provide a small drink, but no need to prepare it in any way. 🙃🌿🌼🌸
@@Suburbanoasis Perfect! I am excited to see how they do. Thank you for your knowledge. You have inspired and helped me so much in my garden/containers this year!
First the good news:I got a 2 gal. Endless Summer Hydrangea for $20. Now the bad, I have NO IDEA what cultivar it is. Just a number written on the container, no hang tag. It seems to be a small bush type. Old flowers are pink/red & antique green. One new flower starting to come are white with pink/lilac circle. Me dazzled by half price & $5 coupon. Mwah ha ha.
Sure do, just pushed them down into the soil about 4 to 6 inches. One cutting I did in perlite in a small plastic pot that was kept moist and covered with saran wrap to keep the moisture in. The stick in the dirt method was the easiest! 😉🌿🌷💮
@@Suburbanoasis can you do an update in the fall on diamond rouge hydrangea at its peak colour? It was my favourite to see and I might get one after watching your video.
@Kumudini’s Home Garden- you should be able to look up your area by just checking gardening zone on the almanac. What is your typical weather conditions? Do you get frequent rain or not so much?
Soleil, I have a hydrangea that blooms on new wood that branches off from an old last year’s stem. So is that considered blooming on old wood or new wood??? The blooms are very blue and fade to pink. The blooms are more Annabelle style, not panicles. I’m in the hot, humid Piedmont of NC, 7b. I would like to reduce the size but I want to know more about how I should do it. Can u help me??? Thanks!!
Sounds like a reblooming macrophylla??? If so, you may lose any blooms that would come on old wood the first year after pruning, but would get some blooms on the new wood later in the season. My best guess from here! 🤗🌿🌼🌻
Do you cut back the seaside smooth hydrangea similar to the incrediball? Cut the hole thing back in the spring? Maybe if you have a pruning video you could point me to? I got my mom some hydrangeas from the seaside collection, and I want to be able to help her maintain them. Thanks!
Hi Courtney, the seaside serenade collection has different types of hydrangeas, but if it is the bar harbor one then yes cut back by one third in early spring. The macrophylla and serrata type should not be pruned so definitely check which ones she has! 🤗🌼🌷💐
My quickfire is not t blooming yet this year (I am in southern Ontario, Canada). It just starts slowly now. It is really strange. I transplanted it last year because I moved to my new house. I wonder if it might be a reason.
Totally normal! Most perennials and shrubs will tend to put energy toward establishing a good root system that first year, so may not do much above ground growing or flowering. Usually the second season you will see a lot of growth and flowers!
I have a long answer to that question, but the short answer is my grandma was really good at gardening and took me to Europe when I was a teenager as a graduation present and I adored what I saw in the gardens there! 🤩🌿🌹🌼
Ohhh wow Soleil enough said - that’s the perfect short answer thanks for sharing that. My grandma was my inspiration also along with my Uncle it’s amazing how is youngster absorb certain stuff from our past without even realizing it- ✨🤍

Sending rain juju to your area! Some of mine got a little burn on the petals too, it's been a rough gardening year. 🤪🌿🌻🌺

Absolutely gorgeous garden, I love the berry white and the vanilla strawberry hydrangea ❤❤
Thanks so much! 😍🌿🏵🌸
You have so many lovely hydrangeas in your garden. Think I’m going to look for Diamond Rouge near me. Thanks for the info.
I hope you love it if you can get it! 🥰🌿🌷💮
So informative. Thank you.
Thank you for explaing all the the differences, yours are just gorgeous 😁😁😁
Thank you, I am glad it is helpful! 😀🪴🌹🏵

My favorite is the diamond Rouge hydrangea,Beautiful.
Definitely a winner!! 🤗🌹🌼🌸
They are absolutely stunning Soleil 🌸💕🌸
Thanks friend! 🙃🌻💐🌿
Gorgeous hydrangeas.
Thank you Solei. I think that I need to grow more hydrangea in my gardens. 🌺💚🙃
They are kind of addicting, like most plants! 😉🌷🌿💮

The lace cap type panicles definitely attract pollinators as well so it is fun to watch the activity and even butterflies.🤗🌺💐🌸

I am happy you found it helpful! 🤗🌿🌷🌼
Hahahahaha perfect timing for the deer to frolic bye
LoL 😂
😁
I trimmed my hydrangea last year and I got very little blooms this year. I’ll never ever do that again.
Maybe you had a macrophylla variety? Those bloom on old wood and should not be trimmed in the spring like smooth and panicle hydrangeas. ..😍🌿🌷💮
I am obsessed with hydrangeas. How do you winterized your potted hydrangea? I have a limelight in pot a few weeks ago and will be in pot in the winter. Should i do anything to it to prepare for winter?
Can you do a video on how you overwinter your hydrangeas in pots? I'm in MI 6a and would appreciate the info.
If you are in Zone 5 or warmer it should do fine over winter. If there is no rain or snow you just need to provide a small drink, but no need to prepare it in any way. 🙃🌿🌼🌸
@@Suburbanoasis can you just leave it where it is or do you need to put it in a garage or shed? I have a Bobo and Little Lime in containers. Thank you
@@Babs4577 I just leave mine out. It's super simple, nothing really to do. 🙂🌷🌿🏵
@@Suburbanoasis Perfect! I am excited to see how they do. Thank you for your knowledge. You have inspired and helped me so much in my garden/containers this year!
I like your garden. I am in z michigan too.I want to know if you keep the Hydrangea in the pots out door or indoor during the winter.
Thank you, I leave the hydrangeas outdoors for the winter. 🤗💮🌷🌺
Ypu can turn that long stem of the quickfire into a small tree. Lol!
I've thought that several times, but I have kind of grown fond of the double decker look.😉🌷🌿🌸

Sounds like a dazzling combo, coupon plus clearance! 😄🌻🌼🏵
@@Suburbanoasis I told the clerk Happy Birthday to me, (not till Sept.) BUT I've been drooling over these all summer. 🥰
Happy early birthday 🎂!
Great video…..Soleil, when you take a cutting do you put it in the soil right after cutting it?
Sure do, just pushed them down into the soil about 4 to 6 inches. One cutting I did in perlite in a small plastic pot that was kept moist and covered with saran wrap to keep the moisture in. The stick in the dirt method was the easiest! 😉🌿🌷💮
Love your hydrangea collection. Do you do anything special to over winter them in the pot? I had a peegee before but it was floppy
Nothing, I just leave them in the pot and if it gets really dry during the winter will add a slosh of water, but thats it! 🙃🍀🌸🌻
@@Suburbanoasis thank you

I would suggest an unheated area such as a garden shed or garage and then make sure it gets just a little moisture so the roots don't dry out. 🙂🌿🏵🪴
I never realized how many different hydrangeas there are out there! Which one is your Favorite type?
I love the panicle hydrangeas best of the different types. Macrophylla don't work well in my zone so I have zero of those! 😉🌿🌹💮
