Giant hydrangeas

Anyone grow these? I bought a couple at the Farmers Market yesterday, they are about 9" around and just gorgeous! Can't wait to plant them outside!

OMG I am so jelous!! Those are gorgous. What kind of a deal did you get on them? Simply beautiful. I had a friend that had a bush over 7' tall and it was wonderful when they flowered. Good luck with them.

I have one bush the very same color as your photo - they are beautiful but they do not like full sun so be sure to plant in a partial sun/shade location and water thoroughly and often during hot, dry weather.

Those are so gorgeous! There is a hydrangea bush that previous homeowner planted before I moved here, but it hasnt produced one single flower since I've lived here. I'm afraid to plant more because I'm unsure of why the existing one isnt producing. The foilage is gorgeous...just no flowers!

How beautiful! I've been looking at them for weeks, but fear the deer here will see them as their personal salad bar!! Anyone know if deer maybe don't like them?

Cottun and Tastebud you might find some helpful Hydrangea info on this website. It tells you how to get or keep the color you like. Cottun it might help you find out why yours is not blooming.
