In Georgia, hydrangeas typically bloom between late spring and early fall, with peak blooming often occurring from late spring through summer. The exact timing can vary depending on the hydrangea species and cultivar, but generally:
- Mophead hydrangeas (Hydrangea macrophylla) bloom from late spring to early fall.
- Oakleaf hydrangeas (Hydrangea quercifolia), which are native to Georgia, start blooming around June or earlier, with large flower cones lasting for weeks.
- Other types like panicle and smooth hydrangeas bloom from early summer through fall.
Hydrangeas in Georgia (which is mostly in USDA Hardiness Zones 7-8) start blooming as early as late spring and continue through fall. They thrive in the local growing conditions, typically in partial shade and well-draining soil. In summary, you can expect hydrangeas to bloom in Georgia beginning in late spring, continuing through summer, and sometimes into early fall depending on the variety and weather conditions.
