The real decoration of the garden and flower beds – panicle hydrangea. Bushes of incredible beauty with large inflorescences. Cascading formation is recommended for flagellated hydrangea. So it looks much better and becomes lush.

Hydrangea pruning rules

The panicled variety is quite tall. It can grow up to 2 m tall. Start pruning by cutting the general mass.

When the height of the bush is reduced, you can proceed to cutting thin, weak and crooked shoots. Now we make a cascade form. To do this, you need:

• cut the central shoots to three pairs of buds;
• middle ones – to two pairs of buds;
• extreme shoots – for one pair of buds.

This method of pruning is suitable for those panicled hydrangeas that are planted in a free area and have a view from all sides. If the bush is placed only with the possibility of a front view, you can make a hill shape. The advantage of panicle hydrangea is that it can not be covered for the winter.
