How to care for Hydrangea macrophylla Schneeball:
Keep in a cool, bright room and keep well watered. At regular intervals, feed with a balanced liquid fertiliser. Once it has finished flowering (and if you want to plant it outside), gradually acclimatise it to outdoor conditions (ideally in late spring) over a period of 6-8 weeks before planting. Once planted outside, leave the old flower heads in place throughout the winter as these will help protect the tender new buds. Then, as the new shoots start to emerge in spring cut back a third to a quarter of the previous season’s flowering stems to the base and cut back the remaining flower heads to the first pair of buds.
