Care for your hydrangeas! They may now need pruning, especially if they are leggy or overgrown: http://j.mp/csCT2W
Well i have been growing hydrangeas for many years now and my success is Prune them in Spring when growth is starting.This gives them several months in which to produce new shoots to flower later the same year.Do no prume them after flowering because they would start growing again from the buds at the base of the pruned shoots.These would not mature and harden before the winter months and many would be killed by the frost and cold.

I absoloutly love bearded iris, at my last hse I had pale blue 1s n white 1s, now I just got white 1s n they look a real picture when they r flowering. I wish I had some of the exotic coloured 1s they r beautiful, I would have 1 of all the colours given the chance. I shall have 2 scour the garden centres 4 next year.
