How to recognise White Verena hydrangea, when it is in season and how to keep it fresh.
Recut stems under water and split or crush the base of the stem to help uptake. Strip any leaves that would sit below the waterline. Keep in deep, cool water and top up often, as hydrangea heads are thirsty. If a head wilts, submerge the whole flower in water for a short time to revive it.
