| Top Tips |
Water Hydrangeas regularly, especially in warm weather—whether they’re in pots or in the ground. It's better to water deeply a few times a week than a little every day. Drip irrigation works best to keep the leaves dry. If using a hose or watering can, water in the morning or early afternoon so the plant can dry before night. Wet leaves overnight can lead to disease.
Use organic fertilizer like Tru Grower-feed (www.adeneflowers.co.za) or Starke Ayres Hydrangea Food 500g (available on Takealot). The best time to start fertilizing is in September. Feed 3–4 times during the flowering season to help your hydrangea grow strong and bloom evenly. Hydrangeas can be affected by aphids, mildew, and Pythium. To prevent aphids, apply Kohinor (imidacloprid) at 1 ml per 1 litre of water around the base of the plant in September. Or, spray them off with a strong jet of water. For Pythium, use Previcur (propamocarb) at 2.5 ml per 1 litre of water around the plant base during flowering. Plants with Pythium wilt quickly in warm weather. To prevent mildew, spray with copper soap. Or make a homemade spray by mixing 1 tablespoon of baking soda, 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil, and 1 teaspoon of liquid dish soap (not detergent) in 4 litres of water. Spray all over the plant. In warm weather, check for spider mites. Use Smite at 5 ml per 10 litres of water. Beetles chew round holes in leaf edges—Kohinor also helps control them. Neem oil is a natural option for preventing insect problems. |
