That hydrangea is awesome, isn't it? I wish I knew the name of it...it was purchased over 15 years ago at (get this...) Home Depot - with one of their typically vague plant tags on it ('Pink Hydrangea'). It's the softest pink color, then turns a fabulous shade of cranberry, and topping out at about 4'. (I love the square wreath, too - anything to be a little 'different'!!) Happy New Year! Thanks, Steve, for the compliments! That hydrangea is awesome, isn’t it?

I completely agree with you - we need more regionally appropriate advice -- especially in California where there are just SO many zones! I wish I had more time for making videos...but as long as you keep making yours I'll be happy (as will my clients - who really appreciate the ones I forward to them - keep up the good work!)

I love this. Here, our Hydrangeas seem to finish earlier than yours do - we're about six hours north in coastal Humboldt County. Only one or two varieties are still hanging on with anything approaching grace in November/ December. I think it's awesome that bloggers are now helping to make regionally-appropriate advice available. You are so right that so many garden mags are centered back east and so their pruning times are a bit off of ours. You are adorable in video, Rebecca! I love this.

Mine is brown and frozen. (sniff sniff). What's the name of that hydrangea? It's lovely! PS - love the square wreath! I’m green with envy over how beautiful your front yard looks.
