Pruning perennials -Reply


I'd like to hear the answer as well.  I have a
new plant and I'm having hydrangea envy --
mine is a baby and about 1' big.  But eventually
I'll need the answer!

I am not sure is hydrangeas are considered a
perennial or a shrub but
QUESTION anyway.  I know how to prune my
mophead hydranges but I just bought
some Oakleaf and Peegee hydrangeas.  The
oakleaf that I bought are very
large - over 5 feet tall and pretty wide.  The
pruning book says to cut them
to the ground which sounds very extreme -
would they grow back to 5'?  Does
anyone have any advice on pruning these?

TIA!
