About Hydrangea

Question

I bought two Hydrangeas. I planted then outside and now they wilted. What happened and what can I do to save my plants?

Answer 1

Since they are newly planted, there may be gaps in the soil around the root ball that is drying out the roots. I would tamp down the soil around the plants. I would also recommend upping the watering. In addition, they could be suffering from shock.
