Interesting, i think Oakleaf hydrangeas are the only type i'm missing. I do see a big difference in bigleaf hydrangeas blooms between brands. My best bloomer [bloom-a-thon is next to LADreaming what has only a few blooms. Not sure if location/sun exposure makes more of a difference than brands. Age may also be a factor. Hydrangeas seem a bit fussy, I don't fertilize not sure if that's a factor.
