Blossoming Questions

My endless summer hydrangeas look like they are dying. The pots didn’t have drainage holes so soil was always wet. Put holes in now for drainage. Will they come back?

I think my new flowers are getting too much sun. I have watered 2xs a day. I am in Nj. Weather is hot.

How do I care for Cinnamon Girl Distylium?


I planted my Endless Summer Hydrangea about 2 weeks ago and it did really well for the first week and now it’s becoming less and less healthy.
 When I planted the hydrangea the tag said it would tolerate full or partial sun, so I planted it an area that receives full sun for about 10 hours a day. I also put a small amount of the fertilizer into the hole. I have watered it well daily since i planted it. The leaves and blooms are turning purplish and then brown and dry. I trimmed the dead leaves and blooms off very carefully and it’s continuously declining.
I’m thinking I should transplant it to an area with more shade and am wondering if this would be ok to do if it’s done at a time of day that is not sunny and hot.

My Endless Summer hydrangea ‘The Original’ is placed in a location where it gets a lot of sun and by 6-7pm gets shade. How much sunlight can they handle?

About 3 weeks ago I planted summer crush hydrangeas in zone 5 in NE. Per you site and the tag it claims these plants can have full sun in zones 4-9. I planted these facing east and given the sun rise I believe they are getting about 8 hours of sun. Since it’s gotten a little warmer I’ve been noticing them drooping a little come the end of the sun time. They seem to re bound after they are in the shade and or I water, but I’m concerned since it will only get hotter here. Is this just b/c their are newly planted or should I be concerned I planted them in too much sun? Also, how much should I be watering them? Thanks

On the west side of my house there is about a 6ft wide path between my house and the fence. We are putting in a 4ft wide interlock walkway and there will be a foot and a half space between the house to the interlock that will be soil and we’d like to plant something. Zone 5. Is this enough room to put any type of hydrangea? I love the colors.

What side of the house do you plant summer crush?

CAN THE ENDLESS SUMMER HYDRANGEA BE PLANTED IN A POT AND PLACED ON A BACK PATIO THAT IS ESSENTIALLY FULL SHADE TO SOME AFTERNOON LIGHT?
