Growing & Maintenance Tips for Hydrangea pan. Fire Light Tidbit®
Plant in full or part sun in cooler climates. In warm areas, plant with some morning sun and shade during the hottest part of the day. Any well-drained soil will do - as long as the soil doesn't stay wet for long periods, Fire Light Tidbit hydrangea will grow happily. Easy-care panicle hydrangeas don't need much fertilizer - one application of a granular rose fertilizer in early spring is sufficient. Pruning panicle hydrangeas like Fire Light Tidbit™ is easy: just cut each stem back by about one-third its total height in late winter or early spring, and remove any thin, spindly branches. This builds a strong base while encouraging lots of new growth for dozens of fabulous flowers.
