Can I get a hydrangea bouquet in April?
Yes.  White and blue hyrangea are available pretty much throughout the year.  Other varieties, such as the pinks and green hydrangea, may have seasonal availability.  Not all florists participate in the global flower market and may not be aware of the availability, so if you’re interested in such a bouquet, it’s best to ask as part of the interview process.

I will be making a bridal bouquet from hydrangeas that are in my yard. Instead of them being round "snowballs" they have a more oblong shape. How would you suggest I make the bouquet look attractive and not like Mickey Mouse ears?

You're using a PG (or PeeGee) hydrangea, and it's not the blossom we'd recommend for your bridal bouquet. They are very fragile, and may very well look like Mickey Mouse or Pluto ears. If you're concerned now, we don't think you'll be happy when you see the finished bouquet. PG hydrangeas can be used to make gorgeous centerpieces, though, and we'd recommend using them for table or accent flowers, even if it's just a few blossoms placed in mason jars. We would recommend using the more classic snowball shape blossoms fo your bouquet. See your local florist a couple weeks ahead and order several loose stems.
