Why does not bloom in hydrangea, but gives only foliage?

Floriculture

Hydrangea is a flowering plant that can be a shrub or a small church, even lianas are found. Her abundant bloom struck with its grace of many gardeners. In Japan, the flower was named Samisay - which means "solar purple flower". A huge variety of inflorescence colors allows you to create beautiful blooming gardens, starting with spring and continuing to late autumn. The main feature of the plant is that the color of the buds may vary depending on the acidity of the soil:

  • With a pH indicator at 6.5-7.5 hydrangea acquires more pale colors - beige, gently pinkish, cream or white-bluish, white.
  • With an alkaline reaction (pH more than 7.5), the color becomes bright pink, purple, red.
  • If the pH indicator is below 6.5 - the flower acquires the color from the blue to dark blue.

Causes of why the plant does not bloom?

Despite the fact that hydrangea grows well on all soils - it can still not bloom. The reasons are still available for this:

  1. Young hydrangea is capable of blooming for the first year after breeding. But if her stalk was very weak and for the summer did not gain his strength, he may not give the expected buds even for the second year, since all the forces go to height, so they simply will not remain on the laying of flower kidney. To avoid such rotation it is worth using regulators. They contribute to the speedy development of the root system, the formation of stems and branches. After disembarking on a new place, it is worth filing with a weak solution of fertilizers so that hydrangea makes faster.

  2. The adult plant ceases to bloom due to the fact that it lacks food. The second name of hydrangea is "Hydrans". She received him thanks to the fact that she loves very moisture. Therefore, the lack of irrigation can lead to the fact that the plant will only lay down the leaf kidneys. Avoiding such a problem will allow regular watering and loosening the soil around the root neck (so that the water is not stored).
  3. A huge amount of varieties lays its floral kidneys solely on the tops of the branches. Inexperienced flowerflowers can, by trimming the shrub, cut them down. As a result, the hydrangea will not bloom in the current season until it is recovered. Before starting to form a crown of the plant - it is worth studying its characteristic.

  4. Heavy climate and bad overlooking can affect the flowering of the plant. In the first case, it is necessary to give preference to varieties that are adopted to some kind of temperature regime. In the second: it is necessary to strengthen the plant well before the onset of cold weather, so that flower kidneys are not damaged, since they begin to be laid back from the autumn.
  5. Incorrect transplant can be ruined with hydrangea flowering. In the process of experience, the shoots may be damaged and the root system, as a result, the plant spends its energy exclusively to restore organs, and not to bookmark the buds. In order not to damage the roots of the shrub in the resetting process - it is necessary to dig it together with an earthen room, carefully holds at the base.

  6. The choice of landing site significantly affects the flowering of hydrangea. The lack of consecration leads to the fact that the shrub is poorly laid by the kidney, and it does not bloom at all. If there was no open space for landing - it is necessary to take care that the installation (pillar) with artificial consecration is nearby.
