Temperature conditions. This hydrangea variety characterizes itself as a seasonal shrub. This means that this plant needs a dormant period. The rest period of the shrub consists in the suspension of development, complete or partial, the cessation of the formation of flowering shoots. It is imperative to take this feature into account when you are going to grow this type of hydrangea at home.Therefore, do not be alarmed when the plant does not have inflorescences, perhaps this hydrangea is currently having a dormant period. The ideal temperature for this hydrangea is considered to be up to -8 degrees. Although this plant can tolerate temperatures up to -20 degrees during the winter period, it is true if this decrease in temperature is of a short-term nature. This variety of hydrangea is definitely required for insulation for the winter period, since it is believed that this plant has an average resistance to frost. All long shoots must be bent to the soil, and then covered with a covering material, or coniferous branches. If we consider the hydrangea bush in general, then its subspecies have a different level of frost resistance. Some subspecies can freeze at a temperature of -4 degrees, and some of them are able to withstand frosts of -40 degrees. Of absolutely all available varieties for decoration, large-leaved ones are most often taken to grow. Although, it is this plant species that is most demanding on the air temperature. Breeders have bred specially subspecies that can withstand frosts quite well, although they must be covered in the winter season. During the dry and rather hot summer period, the leaves and flowers of this plant fall off. The ideal temperature regime for this shrub is +22 degrees. If the temperature begins to rise above this value, then the shrub should be watered and shaded more.
Light mode. Without exception, all hydrangeas require fairly good lighting, although growing in light shade is also considered possible. But even bearing in mind the fact that the plant loves lighting very much, the shrub still needs to be hidden from direct sunlight, since hydrangea leaves can get burned when they are under direct sun all day. Therefore, the plant can be planted next to the building. But the landing site should be located so that the sun's rays can hit the shrub in the morning or evening, but in no case at noon. When grown at home, in the summer you need to shade the flower if it is on the windowsill on the south side. You can use a transparent curtain for this. And if you grow this type of shrub in a greenhouse, then in the summer it is worth pulling a net over the bush, and also whitening the glass with a lime mortar.
A good option for growing a plant would be to place it underneath a growing plant that is tall enough to create a light shade.
Soil preparation. In order for the cultivation of this plant to bring remarkable results, it is necessary in advance, before planting, to prepare the correct composition of the soil. In order for this shrub to have good growth, as well as normal development and sufficiently abundant flowering, it must be grown in soil with a sufficient amount of nutrients and nutrients, and also with a rather loose structure, but not sandy. Otherwise, moisture can go deep and will not remain in the area of the plant roots. Also, this plant will get pretty good development if the soil contains microscopic fungi that live in soil with a fairly high level of acidity, and the acidity should be no more than 7. To prepare the necessary soil with your own hands, you need to mix humus with peat , fine sand and forest land.
Plant watering rules. The process of watering this plant has a number of features, such as: the temperature of the irrigation water should not be too cold; you need to monitor the hardness of the irrigation water, since if it is very hard, then it is possible to change the alkaline composition of the soil towards high alkalization, or neutralization; stagnant water cannot be used when watering,otherwise, there is a possibility of decay of the root system of the plant; during a period of rather high solar activity, in no case should the irrigation procedure be carried out; during the watering procedure, you should carefully follow it and prevent water from getting on the buds and foliage; it is strictly forbidden to use tap water for watering this plant, since it contains a large amount of chlorine.
To reduce the number of watering procedures, soil mulching should be carried out. The main component of mulch can be: small straw, hay, needles or sawdust. Spring is considered the best period for mulching, and early. But the main thing is to know that you need to mulch the soil only after top dressing with fertilizers. In the fall, you can lay out the mulch again. And when grown at home, the amount of watering decreases if the air temperature drops.
Features of the introduction of dressings. With the correct application of dressings, you can end up with the most beautiful appearance of the plant, as well as much larger inflorescences. For older shrubs, organic and mineral fertilizers are applied. Top dressing should be started in early spring. With the help of irrigation, liquid complex fertilizers are applied in the form of a solution containing superphosphate and potassium sulfate. Organic matter begins to be applied in one week. The next application of mineral fertilizers falls on the period of bud formation. Fertilizers containing nitrogen are applied only in early spring.
