Safety note: Do not rely on photo identification alone before eating, treating, touching, or using a plant medicinally. Confirm the identification with a trusted local or professional source when safety matters.

Best Time to Prune
Late winter to early springHow to Prune
Remove dead, weak, or crossing stems first. If shaping is needed, shorten the previous season's growth by about one-third while keeping a strong framework of healthy stems. Panicle hydrangeas do not need to be cut down to 6–10 inches to bloom well.
