How to grow or save our hydrangeas that are suffering from drought
Hydrangea it’s a beautiful flower, one of my favorites. Seeing it in bloom in the garden is a joy to behold. The colors of him bring cheerfulness and suggest abundance. In fact, they form a large bush full of green leaves and flowers, reminiscent of gods small pots of water. It seems that one of the origins to which the name is traced back and which derives from the ancient Greek is precisely this: vase of water.

We can choose whether to grow it in pots or whether to plant it directly in the garden. It is enough to follow some precautions. First of all the exposure. Hydrangea does not like particularly sunny places, on the contrary, we must choose the areas of half shade. She loves to be watered abundantly, if in a pot, even several times a day.
L’estate we are experiencing is very hot, the ground it dries quickly and the hydrangea suffers. In my garden, they have in fact dried up and I am trying to recover them by following a few but very useful suggestions.

If both the leaves and the flowers are dry, the only thing we can do is cut off the damaged part. This allows the hydrangea to save energy which he will then use to recover. We can save the branches still green making small ones cuttings to be potted immediately to have new plants.
Hydrangea it is a tough plant, it does not die easily. It can be dry, but if the roots are still alive, it manages to recover for another bloom. If the plant is in vasothe best thing to do, is to immerse it in a container filled with water and leave it until no more bubbles appear. This way the earth stays moist and helps the plant recover.
In garden it’s simpler: we water it abundantlyalmost to flood it, because the humidity must wet the earth and penetrate until it reaches the roots in depth. To take care of hydrangea does not require a great knowledge of gardening, and not even a green thumb, you just need a little attention and passion.
