But that doesn’t mean it’s the end for yourhydrangea.It will bud out again.
and they will still form new flower buds and new flowers, and you’ll get more blooms.
You don’t have to prune them every year.
So you gotta get outta this mindset that you got to go out there andprune these things.
If you’ve got the option to find green underneath, it means it’s still alive.
If it’s brown, it means that part of the stem is brown.
Plant Of The Week
Every Wednesday, Grumpy shares the plant he is loving right now.
This week he raves about Encore Azalea.
About Little Miss Figgy
Well, this is a new punch in offruiting fig.
We love the, uh, the taste of all the fruit.
They’ll put it into jams and all sorts of stuff like that.
One thing that you have to remember about a regular fig tree though is that it gets big.
And you probably won’t like that.
Well, now, in theSouthern Living Plant Collection, we have a new introduction called Little Miss Figgy.
And what’s really nice about this one is it stays in a nice, compact shape.
And it has several crops a year.
What’s nice about growing things in containers is that you’re not stuck.
