Planting hydrangeas in containers is easy, fun, and adds pops of color on your front step, patio, or in the garden. Click play to learn all the tips and tricks!
The deer ate my hydrangeas down to the ground, so when I saw this I moved one into a pot this spring, and put it where they won’t get them. It has a few leaves growing, hopefully it will make it! Thanks for this advice!
After murdering hydrages I used the wrong soil and didn't put more holes in the bottom for draining. Now with your channel I finally got it right. I live in northern CA and the nights were cold. My hydragea I just bought I covered every night. Next month I bought a bigger pot used peat moss and added perlite with stones on the bottom for drainage. It took off like crazy, I've got buds growing. This one is white and I bought a pink one. Same thing and both plants growing like crazy!!! I'm so happy 😊 now that I know what I'm doing!!! Thank you so much 💓 Subscribed
I'm with you on zone-envy, Ryan! I'm in zone 4b from Minnesota. I've got a number of Endless Summer Hydrangeas in my front garden and love them! The first two years followed the old garden adage of SLEEP and CREEP, so this season I'm hoping for the Hydrangeas to LEAP forth in growth and blooms!!
Perfect. Thanks for the inspiration on hydrangea ideas. I've been avoiding this one due to lack of space. Definitely going to add some to the front porch!!!
Update:I did try doing this and split one plant 3 ways for 3 pots I'm not sure what happened but they all flopped the next day. Spent too much money on them for that to happen. So I was going to throw them out but cut them down a ways and left all the stems in each pot Will they grow back if I leave them like this??? If I do it again I am just leaving it like a bush to grow as intended.
I planted an Endless Summer in a large cedar planter ( zone 6B)...too many tree roots to plant in the ground. I wrap the pot with 2 layers of bubble wrap and top with leaves for the winter. So far, so good.
Well --- This is definitely a Why didn't I think of That moment for me. My mama could grow the most beautiful hydrangeas in Virginia where I was raised. I got in so much trouble, breaking off those big flowers and playing "bride" ! LOL But, I live in tropical South Florida and I tried a few times in the yard with no luck. Why didn't I ever try them in a pot on my patio ? Just enough sun to grow flowers but not enough to burn the plant ! Wish me luck !
I’m also in FL 10a and got a rescue plant from Walmart back in February. The plant THRIVES in dappled shade but will burn as soon as I put it in a place with more than 3 hours of even just morning sunlight. Hopefully it’ll make it through the summer without any mildew problems but it’s doing good so far. Good luck!
That's encouraging. I just bought one today and going to put it in a pot. Hopefully it'll bloom in spring. Do you keep it in a sunny spot or dappled light spot? Thanks.
Thanks for the info. Live in California so I think my shrub will be fine outdoors during the winter. Look forward to when the plant is fully established.
I planted a dance rhythmic blue hydrangea in pots last month. I’ve kept blueberries alive in containers for over 4 years, so I figured hydrangeas wouldn’t be much harder. Watching your video made me wish, my pots were prettier.. kinda was hoping the video discussion was more about verity options, which hydrangeas do best in pots. I don’t really need to know, but I just enjoy watching gardening related videos..
It's normally a good idea to place crocks in the bottom of the pot or container you are planting into to ensure good drainage. And you may need to move shrubs to a larger pot every two or three years, as they grow.
Thank you for sharing. I will try planting them in a pot. I have 2 hydrangea bushes , one is always covered with flowers, the other only had a few. Idk why, there right next to each other.
I just received a beautiful blue hydrangea for my birthday that I was thinking of planting it in a pot. I am really happy to hear that they can be kept in the garage during the wintertime, however what is a "snowballs worth" of water, lol? I believe that we are in a 5a zone. Thanks!!
Gm edagdwg thanks for sharing this story of what happens when you get crazy with plants love this way of gardeing play with them enjoy them Linda j peace fun in the sun 🦋🦋🦋🌹🌹🌹❤️❤️❤️🌈🌈🌈
Well i not seen all the video but from the first few mins of the video he was had hydrangeas, these flower each year regardless of having bees or not. But bees are importants and should not be killed,,,,
I have one hydrangea on a pot for few years now, and was doing good, not until I transplanted to a new and big pot last year. I did think she like it. We’ll see how she will do this year. I am diagnosed with arthritis and I have some limitation, so this is why I am starting to plant some perennials that I don’t have to remove them after the summer is over. I don’t know much about plants, but I trying to grow the kind that’s easy to care. I live in zone 8. Any recommendations? I am also will like to by more hydrangeas and planted on pots. Thank you and an amazing day!🌞🪴🎋🍄🌹hope you understand my message,since my primary language is Spanish!
I loved the video! I just wish I had success with the endless summer hydrangeas. I have tried them 6 times and none have lasted more than 3 years. I have them where I can baby them but as each year goes they get smaller and smaller until they are gone. It just makes me so sad every time.
I know this sounds crazy but the only hydrangeas that I have had luck with are the ones they sell at the big box stores for Mother’s Day I found 10 at Walmart on the clearance rack that were all dry and leave less for 3.00. I bought them all planted them and with in 60 days they had all leaved out and had blooms. I figured that they wouldn’t make it thru the winter but they did even when we had zero degree temperatures. I’m waiting now to see if they bloom this year. They have really put on size and look great. Unfortunately my endless summer ones look to be on their last legs again. So annoying.
Try adding blood meal about size of a quarter when reporting and also when buds start growing just once. U need to feed them or they shrink up. Don't feel bad. I've murdered about 10 but I'm not giving up. I finally got it with this vid. Twice size of pot it came in mix with peat moss and perlite gently tmremove soil at root ball just a little so big roots are free gently place in New pot add more peat moss and perlite top with quarter size blood meal around plant water throughout and your done. Secret is pot needs to have those holes. I wasn't doing that they need at least 6 holes. Never let them sit in water. Top soil dry add water. If moist leave them alone.
I have a question - I live in zone 5 (Ottawa Canada) and if I bring my container into my unheated garage, how can I water it once a month, won't the soil in the pot still be frozen? I am really getting into container gardening and I enjoyed watching this video.
I just bought 2 cherry explosion hydrangeas and will be putting them in pots. I will over winter them in the insulated garage. There is no light in the garage unless the big doors are open which isn’t very long in the winter. Will no light be a problem?
Which hydrangeas should I plant in a pot for my front entrance? It only gets couple of hours of sun in the morning and the rest is in the shade Help please 🙏
I had a patio hydrangea I didn't want to put in ground and lose over winter. I have it indoors now. It is growing leaves rapidly is this a bad or good thing. Does it need to be dormant?

Most pots have no holes or just one. Is that why you added stones? How did you cover them?
I did this for the first time this year. My yard is full of hydrangeas so I decided to start potting them up for the porch. It looks beautiful!
I love his smile .... So positive
Love hydrangeas! Had them in the ground for years until the poison ivy killed them! Now, I only plant in pots! Thanks for the tips!
I so wish he was my neighbor!!!
Same
Same!
I wish he lived with me and that was my yard 😂I feel like I live in the upside down from stranger things. 😭🤦🏻♀️
The best video on how to plant hydrangeas in containers and over winter them :) I thoroughly enjoyed watching it!
You do have a playful energy. No wonder your hydrageas look so beautiful. I have some of them in pots. I love it. Thank you for sharing.
I agree, the host is amazing! The flowers are great!
Thank you! You gave me a lot of good information!! Never had a hydrangea but was given one for my birthday. I want it to thrive!
You’re adorable and sooo fun to watch !!! Thank you for the easy tips on planting in pots. Am definitely going to try a shrub in a pot🪴🪴🪴

What a great idea!! Thanks for sharing- I will try this
What is a cedar planter?
It’s like a 1/2 whisky barrel made of cedar. They come in many sizes. I think the wood always the roots to breathe.
I love your solitary bee house in the background. Enjoyed your video
I just found you & I LOVE this video on hydrangeas. just what I needed! thank you SO much!!!

WOW!!! I never saw red Hydrangeas! Never saw them in India.
Me either, aren't they beautiful?
my endless summer hydrangeas are doing excellent in containers and bloom each year! I use miracle grow potting soil.
gone try that if these animals don't eat the flowers
MZAC Sunday School would it survive in NJ weather in the winter outside?
That's encouraging. I just bought one today and going to put it in a pot. Hopefully it'll bloom in spring. Do you keep it in a sunny spot or dappled light spot? Thanks.

What about the ones you buy from a garden centre should I leave them in their pots for now? They already have flowers. I only got them few days ago
Good morning Thánh you so much for sharing ♥️♥️👍

I’ve never been successful with hydrangeas, and they are my favorite plant 😣😣😣.

if you plant an endless summer hydrangea in a pot, and put it on your back porch, can you have it in there for years?
Thanks so much!
How often would you water them? And how much using a gallon watering can? Or how much time with a watering hose
I have a question - I live in zone 5 (Ottawa Canada) and if I bring my container into my unheated garage, how can I water it once a month, won't the soil in the pot still be frozen? I am really getting into container gardening and I enjoyed watching this video.

Nice! 😊
I need to know what kind of firtelizer you use in hydrangeas thank you
Happy excellnt👏🌸
Love your channel!
Thanks good information
I live in Minneapolis! If I plant it in the pot would it come back next year ? In a Big pot 😊
What bright pink hydrangea is this in this video I'm obsessed
Which hydrangeas should I plant in a pot for my front entrance?
It only gets couple of hours of sun in the morning and the rest is in the shade
Help please 🙏
Omy love these would they do well in the caribbean
I love it 😀👍❤
Where did you buy the “Seed Co” pot?
I had a patio hydrangea I didn't want to put in ground and lose over winter. I have it indoors now. It is growing leaves rapidly is this a bad or good thing. Does it need to be dormant?
Great 👍
Can I do try this in October ?
Zone envy, yes 😅
Wisconsin joins the envy list🤣🤣👍
Yes gurl, work!!
Very helpful 👍💓
Is it okay to use miracle grow potting mix for hydrangeas?
Sir how much price of this flowers 💐 in your country?tooooo beautiful.
Hi good video on hydrangea fantastic ❤❤
Do we put any slate/crockery in the bottom for drainage.
