Two of the three hydrangeas we planted late last summer look like they’re not going to flower this year thanks to a late winter frost. The only one that’s flowering now is the one that didn’t lose all its new leaves to frostbite. Still, at least they’re all still alive, and we have a huge one already that we planted about 10 years ago so we know they do well despite the highland weather (though our acidic soil tends to make the flowers go purple regardless of their natural colour).
