I have a mophead hydrangea that is about 3 years old. I don't know the specific variety.
In May, I gently pruned it for shape. When summer came, there were only 3 - 4 blooms on the shorter branches. Maybe on ones I hadn't cut? It bloomed well last summer. It gets plenty of sun and has good soil.
Next to the blue hydrangea are two, pink mophead hydrangeas which I pruned at the same time, also 3 years old, which flowered fine this summer.
Can anyone suggest when / how I should prune the blue mophead in the future?
