When to prune different types of Hydrangeas? It can be confusing, but @MonroviaPlants has some great tips 👇
#PanicleHydrangeas bloom on new wood: prune in late winter or early spring
#OakleafHydrangea bloom on old wood: prune in late summer or early fall after blooming
#MopheadHydrangeas bloom on old wood: prune in summer or early fall
#Reblooming Hydrangeas, such as Monrovia's Seaside Serenade® hydrangeas, bloom on new and old wood: prune anytime, or not at all -- they stay nice and compact!
#Smooth Hydrangeas bloom on new wood: prune in late winter or early spring

Not sure which type you have? Use these photos (listed in order) as a guide, or bring us a picture and let us tell you!

Time for a cool fact 🤓 Every #MonroviaPlants spiral #topiary turns the same way! The craftsman who handshape them (it takes them years) make sure of it, using traditions handed down to them, going back nearly 100 years.

Why? So you can get the perfect matching pair for your #frontporch.

Check out the spirals in front of "Mount Monrovia" at their California nursery to see for yourself!

Here's a brilliant idea 💡👉 Plant gold-leaved shrubs. During the winter months, they light up the landscape. The rest of the year, they shine a spotlight on other showstoppers, like this Threadleaf False Cypress does for a Mikasa Itoh Peony in the @MonroviaPlants display garden.

Come in to Akin's Nursery & Landscape to see which brightly-colored shrubs we can recommend for your landscape!

Color theory, garden style—illlustrated in these three containers designed by #MonroviaPlants:

1️⃣ Analogous - uses colors next to each other on the color wheel for a harmonious effect, making gardens feel more unified and peaceful.
2️⃣ Monochromatic - focuses on a single color, varying in shades, tints, and tones for a visually cohesive effect that's also expansive in small spaces.
3️⃣ Complementary - uses colors opposite each other on the color wheel, for a vibrant, high-contrast look that makes spaces feel lively and dynamic.
