Plant Forever And Ever Hydrangeas in well-drained soils and part shade, preferably morning sun with afternoon shade. If your soil is heavy clay or doesn't drain well, make sure to dig planting hole three times as wide as the root ball and incorporate organic matter into the native clay soil to provide good drainage. This compact hydrangea works well in the shade garden, shady foundation plantings, or as a low, natural hedge in shady areas.

Because they bloom on old and new wood, Forever And Ever Hydrangeas are very forgiving and will not suffer if left unpruned, or if pruned at the wrong time. In fact, young, recently planted shrubs are best left alone. As the shrub matures, some pruning can be done to remove dead or broken branches. Prune just as new growth is emerging in Spring.
