I brought a beautiful blue hydrangea. The shop told me to cut stem then spray the head of the flower! While this worked for the first day. The third day I sprayed the head again. It didn't like it and has started to wilt so has the leaves! Is it a case of you just do this once? Do you really spray the head with water? as I was told this flower drinks from the top too! And lastly which of your water methods would save my expensive cut flower? Thks!

GORGEOUS! Love your Blue and Purple Hydrangeas! Mine are all pink because of our soil acidity being low. I grew up in WA state, and they were always Blue there. It is such a lovely color! Did you condition your soil to change the color? THANKS!

Thanks for all the great information! I tried the boiling water tip that you gave on three of my hydrangea blooms that had wilted a bit after being in a vase for awhile. It is amazing how well that works! They look totally restored!

Hi! I have a hydrangea bush that looks so similar to yours! I-m not sure if you mentioned this but after I bring them inside in a vase will I need to spray them with any insect repellent?

Thank you so much for the tips! What brand of hydrangea are the ones that were the blue that you featured the most. I didn't know you could re-hydrate and bring back the bloom!

We-ve successfully used the hot water method many times and are always amazed that they perk right back up. We wrap the blooms in paper towels to catch the steam.

if my hydrangea blooms have some dirt on them (from drooping branches, should I just gently wash the blooms in cold water after cutting?

A florist trick is to cut stem as you show then place hydrangea in about 3 cups of water with 1 T of alum powder mixed in
