I am getting my yard winterized. Just took care of the Lilies and now wonder what to do with the Lace Cap Hydrangeas. The foliage is still very full and green. Do I cut them down to the ground or just let the leaves fall off and leave the wood? NE Ohio here. Thanks. Donna [dunno]

Hi Donna,
This site will tell you all you need to know about your hydrangeas.

When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant.

Lacecap hydrangeas bloom on last year's wood, so they should only be pruned right after they bloom....otherwise you will be cutting off the blooms for next year. Just leave them be until next spring and cut off any dead stems once they start to leaf out.
