: Should hydranges be cut back in the fall. I cut them back last fall and to date we have (2) blooms. We live in northern Indiana. Last year we had dozens of blooms but I don't remember if I trimmed them back.

Hi Jack,
Pruning hydrangeas depends on which type you have. Take a look at this site and see if it helps. You may be pruning off the following years buds.
