Is it too late to prune old blooms from my Hydrangea tree? #867162

Asked May 05, 2024, 10:48 PM EDT

Wondering if I should prune these old blooms off my Hydrangea tree (I think it's a Pee Gee Hydrangea). It's already started budding so I'm wondering if it's too late or still OK? And if OK, how far back should I prune?
