A sheltered spot, protected from strong winds, is ideal to support its upright to bushy growth habit.

Mixing organic materials like compost into the existing soil improves water permeability and nutrient availability. Plants grown in pots can be planted year-round, except during frost periods. After planting, it's important to water the plants until they are well-rooted. The size of the plant determines the number of plants per square metre; for this plant, one per m² is recommended. For more detailed planting instructions, follow the guidelines carefully.

Pruning a Hydrangea macrophylla 'The Bride'

Hydrangea macrophylla 'The Bride' benefits from regular pruning to maintain its shape and encourage healthy growth. Pruning is best done in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. This plant does not require heavy pruning; simply remove dead, damaged, or crossing branches to improve air circulation. Cutting back spent flowers during the blooming period can promote further flowering. Use clean, sharp secateurs or pruning shears to prevent disease spread. Regular maintenance helps the plant remain vigorous and enhances its overall appearance in the garden.

Watering a Hydrangea macrophylla 'The Bride'

Hydrangea macrophylla 'The Bride' requires careful watering to thrive. It prefers consistent moisture but not waterlogged conditions. It's best to water deeply and less frequently, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Early morning is the ideal time to water, reducing evaporation and allowing the plant to absorb moisture throughout the day. During dry spells, increase watering frequency. Rainwater is a great option if available. Always check the soil moisture before watering to avoid overwatering. Ensure excess water can drain away, whether in the ground or in pots. Once established, this plant can tolerate short dry periods, but young plants need regular watering to establish roots.

Fertilising a Hydrangea macrophylla 'The Bride'

Using organic fertilisers is recommended, as they provide nutrients without the risk of root or leaf burn associated with chemical alternatives. Heijnen's Organic Starter Fertilizer and Organic Maintenance Fertilizer are excellent choices. Fertilise twice a year, in spring and summer, to support the plant's vitality. The amount of fertiliser depends on the plant's size, so adjust accordingly. Nutrients are absorbed when dissolved in water, so during dry spells, ensure the garden is watered to activate the fertiliser and nourish the roots effectively.
