Grow hydrangeas this way: no pests, no yellow leaves, vigorous growth and full of vitality

Soil: Hydrangeas do well in fertile, well-draining sandy soil. Watering: Do not water too much; just keep the soil moist. Light: It likes shade, so do not let it sit in direct sunlight. Fertilizing: During the peak growing period, apply a dilute cake fertilizer once every half month, and give an extra 1-2 feedings when buds are forming. In addition, prevent and control pests and diseases, and strengthen care in winter.

1. Soil

Hydrangeas do well in fertile, well-draining sandy soil, which helps them grow and bloom even better.

2. Watering

Do not water too much; just keep the soil moist. If the soil is too wet, its leaves will rot very easily. When summer temperatures are high, spray water around it to lower the temperature. In the rainy season, make sure drainage is good so water does not accumulate and cause root rot.

3. Light

Hydrangeas like shade and dislike sunlight, so it is best not to let them sit in direct sunlight, especially in summer; too-strong sunlight will scorch them. In autumn and winter, when the light is weaker, place them in a brighter spot to help flower bud differentiation.

4. Fertilizing

During its peak growing period, apply a dilute cake fertilizer once every half month. When buds are forming, give an extra 1-2 feedings; adding a soaked superphosphate solution can make the flowers bigger and the colors more vivid.

5. Points to note

1. Prevention and control of pests and diseases: Common diseases include powdery mildew and leaf spot; after infection, spray with zineb wettable powder. The most common pest is aphids, which can be sprayed with water soaked in cigarette butts, or controlled by spraying with omethoate emulsion.

2. Winter care: After winter arrives, move it indoors to grow, and keep the temperature above 5°C so it can survive the winter safely. In winter, reduce watering to avoid root rot.
