This spring I bought a small hydrangea (4 inch pot) that was labeled as a new variety designed to stay small. Or something like that. It said it was only hardy to zone 7 (I'm zone 5b). It's been sitting in a pot on the patio all summer. The blooms are now starting to fade so I'm wondering what to do with it. Will it survive being wintered indoors, or do all hydrangeas need a period of dormancy? This is not a florist's hydrangea, unless the labeling was deceptive.
