Keep Your Hydrangeas Happy and Hydrated! 

Hydrangeas love moisture and don’t do well in dry soil. Here’s how to keep them thriving:

How to Tell If Your Hydrangea Needs Water

  • Touch Test: Stick your finger into the soil about an inch deep. If it feels dry, it’s time to water.
  • Look for Droopiness: If the flowers or leaves are starting to droop or look limp, your plant is thirsty.

Give It a Weekly Soak

Once a week, treat your hydrangea to a deep drink:

  1. Fill a bucket with water.
  2. Slowly lower the pot into the water until it’s submerged up to the first set of leaves.
  3. Wait until the bubbles stop rising—this means the soil is fully soaked.
  4. Take it out after a few minutes. Don’t leave it sitting in water too long—roots need air too!

Avoid Soggy Bottoms

Don’t let the pot sit in a saucer full of water. While hydrangeas love moisture, their roots need good drainage to stay healthy.
