Hydrangea’s love the morning sun and afternoon shade. If you can give your plant those conditions it will be very happy! They will still grow in full sun, however make sure to give them extra water on hot days as they do not like the heat of the day. Water: Hydrangea plants like consistent moisture. So for potted plants, you can possibly water once a day. The goal with watering hydrangea’s is to keep the soil moist at all times, but not too wet or soggy (they do not like sitting in soggy soil). They also like a deep watering about once a week, especially if you are in dry conditions. Temperature: 50 to 60F is the ideal range for hydrangea’s to bloom and grow! Humidity: Preferably, hydrangea’s would like moderate to high humidity. Keep your plant away from drafts, heat sources, or high winds. Feeding: You can fertilizer your hydrangea once or twice a year in spring and summer. If your soil is already nutrient rich, you may not need to fertilize at all.
