Planting & Care Instructions

Where to Plant

  • Sunlight: This smooth hydrangea performs best with at least 6 hours of direct sun, which encourages strong stems that can hold up the massive blooms. While it tolerates partial shade, too much shade often leads to floppier stems and fewer flowers.
  • Soil: Plant in rich soil that holds moisture but drains well to prevent root rot. If you have heavy clay or sandy soil, mix in compost or peat moss at planting time to improve texture and water retention.

Watering Requirements

The large leaves of smooth hydrangeas lose water quickly, so consistent moisture is key, especially during the first year and in summer heat. If the soil dries out completely, the plant will wilt dramatically and the flower edges may turn brown. Apply a 3-inch layer of mulch around the base to keep the roots cool and moist.

Pruning Tips

Haas Halo blooms on new wood, meaning the flowers emerge on the current season's growth. Prune the stems back by about one-third in late winter or very early spring before new leaves appear. This annual "haircut" encourages vigorous new growth that is sturdy enough to support the heavy lacecap flower heads.

Fertilizer Needs

Apply a slow-release, balanced fertilizer or a formula designed for flowering shrubs in early spring as new growth begins. Avoid high-nitrogen fertilizers late in the growing season, as this pushes soft green growth that won't have time to harden off before winter.

#ProPlantTips For Care

Hardy native plants, Hydrangea do best in part sun, preferably morning sun. Especially love afternoon shade in hotter summer climates, Haas Halo flourishes in dappled shade. However, in the cooler growing zones, Hydrangea can tolerate more sun than shade.

Not particular about the type of soil, Hydrangea prefers moisture and rich, highly organic planting sites.

Well-drained soil is essential, as is consistent soil moisture for Haas Halo Hydrangea. A generous layer of mulch helps retain soil moisture as well as insulate the root system from heat and chill.

Drought tolerant once well established, regular waterings are needed for best health during the hot summer months for the largest and longest-lived blooms.

Blooming on new wood, be sure to prune in late winter or early spring before you see new growth. Prune back for a renewal pruning every few years to keep your shrub growing vigorously.

For lacy halo's of white blooms and sturdy deep green foliage that will bring heavenly beauty to your garden, you won't be able to resist the Haas Halo Hydrangea from Nature Hills Nursery! Call for yours today!
