It’s late July, and my hydrangea bushes seem late to bloom. Any tips? Should I fertilise or feed them?

What variety? Looks like a little lime? I work at a nursery and we fertilize ours a few weeks before they bloom, except in heat waves because then it would be counter productive because the plant would be taking too much energy to make new blooms instead of keeping cool and hydrated.

1 gillaThose ones tend to flower late summer, I have them too. They are lime light
1 gillaWhen they are flowering I feed, it takes a lot of energy.

0 gillningarWe also had a cold spring and late-starting summer, so perhaps this accounts for their lateness too.
