Tuff Stuff Hydrangea Transplanted June 2023
Back along the fence, behind the large colony of Summer Beauty Ornamental Onion is one of my first flowering shrubs - that has NEVER flowered : Tuff Stuff Red Hydrangea . Part of our plan is extending the current row of Oakleaf Hydrangeas with another few flowering shrubs that sit in front of - and in between - the Green Giant Thujas . In order to plant the new flowering shrubs (I ended up finding another Oakleaf Hydrangea variety), I needed to move the Tuff Stuff Hydrangea. It never has grown much in size (nor...flowered), so I knew I could tuck it into some smaller spots. I opted for moving it right next to the other non-blooming hydrangea - the Everlasting Revolution - closer to the border of that same bed. See below for a photo showing the location of the newly transplanted (and slightly larger) Tuff Stuff Red Hydrangea: With that out of the way, I can move on to planting the pair of Snowqueen Oakleaf Hydrangeas.
