The recent cold weather affected the leaves of a hydrangea bush. they have all turned brown. Should I trim those branches back or just take the leaves off and let the branches go? Thanks.

Hi,

It is best to just let the damaged leaves fall off naturally. After that you should see some new leaves replace those that were damaged. don't trim any of the branches.
