Q: I have recently bought three hydrangeas for my backyard. I plan to keep one in a pot on my patio, while the other two will be planted at the back of a large border. Do you have any tips on the best way to water them, to ensure that they thrive?
A: Hydrangeas are a brilliant backyard shrub, offering beautiful, long-lasting blooms throughout the summer and into fall. While looking after them is relatively simple, getting the moisture levels is crucial. If the soil is too dry, the foliage can quickly wilt and their floral display will dwindle.
