How much do you trim hydrangea?

The amount you trim hydrangeas depends on the type. For bigleaf hydrangeas (Hydrangea macrophylla), prune them right after flowering to avoid cutting off next year’s blooms. For panicle (Hydrangea paniculata) and smooth hydrangeas (Hydrangea arborescens), you can prune them in late winter or early spring, cutting back to about one-third of their height to encourage new growth. Always remove dead or damaged stems regardless of type.
