I have two hydrangeas about 20 feet from each other on my west wall. They are at least 15 years old.
This year I don’t see any green budding on the old wood of either.
Only have new growth at the base. Should I trim off the old wood or wait?
Thanks.

I agree with the other person. Looks like you're fine. I have the same look on endless summer mopheads. However, I would trim that back by a third or half only b/c of the tight space.
