Do you want big hydrangea limelight blooms?
Here are our tips for growing massive hydrangea flowers this summer.

We are pruning Hydrangea Paniculata "Limelight" - this variety flowers on new wood.

โœ…1. Trim away all the dead flowers - deadhead ๐Ÿ’€
This will help you see what you are working with.

โœ…2. Trim all the ropey twiggy branches from last year
If these aren't trimmed they will produce new branches and smaller flowers. The less the plant is trying to grow the more energy it can send to make massive blooms.

โœ…3. Trim away any branches that are crossing over
This creates more airflow and supports a healthy season, avoid infections and mildew.

We are going to hold off fertilising these until the new growth starts to appear to ensure we don't waste fertiliser.

Some of us just can't wait any longer for Spring and that includes our Deciduous Magnolias!  ๐Ÿ’ฎโ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ’šMagnolia Strawberry Fie...

CJs Style Miscanthus Trimming!
Does anyone else feel like they just charged their Makita New Zealand batteries?!?
It's ideal to trim your Miscanthus in late winter / early spring, before the new shoots start appearing. Our dry garden is rather sheltered so ours Miscanthus has started to shoot up already, so we are going to trim back to 25-30CM and pluck out any dead grass to avoid any rot.
We like to tie ours up for ease of trimming and it's easier to clean up.
Hope you enjoy our video, full of bloopers to show Jane forgets to charge things just like your spouse!

We're trimming our Sedum Autumn Joys with our new Lowe Anvil cutters! It's like butter ๐Ÿคค๐Ÿงˆ๐Ÿ”ช
Now the sedum autumn joy crown is starting to produce new growth we are going to trim off last seasons flowers! This will increase the light exposure and give the new florets more space to bush out.
It's also a great time to divide if you want additional plants!

Can anyone guess what an empty row means for you guys?
