Hydrangea "Endless Summer" protect from frost
Although in the Hydrangea "Endless Summer", unlike other farm hydrangeas, the risk of a failing flowering is much lower. After all, this variety blooms not only last year, but also on the fresh wood. Nevertheless, the otherwise lush flowering can be significantly reduced by frost damage.
Planted Hydrangea "Endless Summer" mulching
Actually, the farmer's hydrangea "Endless Summer" is a variety with quite good characteristics in terms of hardiness. Nevertheless, the flowering of this really very flower-willing plant may be endangered by winter frosts, so you need to protect them by taking appropriate measures. Optimal is a foliage pile, build a frame of chicken wire around the plant and fill it with a dry foliage-straw mixture. Alternatively, a fleece or bast cover protects the sensitive buds. Frozen shoots are simply cut away in the spring.
Tips & Tricks
Unlike planted specimens, tub hydrangeas should not overwinter outdoors but frost-free. Ideal for this is a cool and bright room, and you should not forget the regular watering even in winter.
