FAQs
How do I care for Hydrangea Tivoli?
Hydrangea Tivoli thrives in partial shade to full shade. Keep the soil consistently moist and apply a layer of mulch to retain moisture. Prune after flowering to maintain shape and remove spent blooms.
How can I change the flower color of Hydrangea Tivoli?
The color of Hydrangea blooms can be influenced by soil pH. For blue flowers, ensure the soil is acidic; for pink flowers, aim for a more alkaline soil. Use appropriate soil amendments to adjust pH.
What should I do if my Hydrangea Tivoli is not blooming?
Ensure the plant is in the right light conditions and that the soil is consistently moist. Prune only after the blooming period to avoid cutting off potential flower buds.
I planted these mid May in zone 6b. Early to mid July I have flowers. They all germinated and are producing! I cannot say the same for other brands and varieties.
