If hydrangeas did not bloom well this year, there are a few things you can try to get them back on track.

Prune them at the right time because timing is everything.

Test your soil and see if there is too much nitrogen or not enough nutrition to feed plants.

Ensure it is getting enough water and that it is also not waterlogged. Make sure the soil is well-draining.

Make sure it is getting the right amount of sunlight for that variety. It may need to be relocated if it isn't.

Avoid fertilizing and instead, focus on improving soil quality.
