To ensure the health and vitality of Hydrangea macrophylla 'Ice Girl', follow these maintenance tips:

1. Light Requirements: Plant in a location that receives morning sun and afternoon shade. Avoid planting in full sun, as it can scorch the leaves and flowers. Filtered or dappled shade is ideal.

2. Soil Conditions: Provide well-draining soil that is rich in organic matter. Hydrangeas prefer slightly acidic soil with a pH between 5.5 and 6.5. Add compost or organic matter when planting to improve soil fertility and drainage.

3. Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during hot and dry periods. Water deeply and thoroughly to ensure the roots receive adequate moisture. Mulch around the base of the plant to help retain moisture and suppress weed growth.

4. Fertilization: Feed 'Ice Girl' with a balanced slow-release fertilizer in early spring, following the package instructions. Alternatively, use a water-soluble fertilizer every 2-3 weeks during the growing season to promote healthy growth and abundant blooms.

5. Pruning: Prune 'Ice Girl' in late winter or early spring before new growth appears. Remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches. To encourage larger blooms, selectively remove some of the oldest stems to promote new growth.

6. Winter Protection: In colder regions, protect the plant during winter by applying a layer of mulch around the base and covering it with burlap or a plant cover. This will help insulate the roots and protect them from freezing temperatures.
