Can a hydrangea be transplanted/ split?

Yep, they sure can. The best time to do it is before they bloom in the spring when the new growth begins. You can take a new growth area and it will root in the ground. Or, you can take some small stems with leaves and put them in water. Eventually they will root. You could even do it with some of the hydrangea flowers next season. You can put the flowers in water, wait for them to die, and keep fresh water on the stem. It will also root. They usually grow pretty fast once they are in the ground, so get roots, and put them out mid to late summer. They should grow again next spring.

Can a hydrangea be transplanted/ split?
Yes you can transplant a hydrangea. Try not to disturb the roots and move it carefully and it should do fine. I wouldn't try to split it, but think you should be able to take a cutting, put Rootone on the end and plant it. Good luck.
