How to plant hydrangea in autumn

1. Select the variety

Regardless of when you plant, be sure to figure out which variety of hydrangea you want to grow. If you are a novice, you can choose varieties that bloom for a long time.

2. Find a planting site

This flower has a certain adaptability and can grow well whether in a flower pot or in a planting bed. Whichever method you choose, do it in the morning and afternoon when the sun is not strong. If it is a large-leaf hydrangea, you should choose a cool environment.

3. Prepare the soil

It grows best in well-drained, nutrient-rich soil. If the soil you are using is poor, add some compost to it. If the soil has poor drainage, add an appropriate amount of peat to it to increase its drainage and air permeability.

4. Planting

Dig a hole in the prepared planting soil, place the hydrangea root in the hole, and continue filling with soil. After planting, press the soil firmly and water it appropriately. The planting depth should not be too deep or too shallow. If it is too deep, the roots of the plant will easily wither; if it is too shallow, the plant will be difficult to fix and will easily fall over.
