In fact, we let them scratch in our veg garden before we planted it, since they mix the soil and poop :) do you have a "wet" spot on your property? that's the best place for hydrangea, they are water hogs. Our drought last year killed a couple of mine. shannonrose wrote on Thu Apr 16, 2009 4:55 am: I am working on a woodland garden and have thought about adding some of these. I love hydrangea. You have a beautiful yard. Do you let your chikens free range alot? If so how do you keep them from destroying your landscape? Comment on this photo (500 characters remaining):
