Hydrangeas love the semi-shade, so find a spot in your garden where they can bask in gentle sunlight. If you choose a sunny location, no worries—just remember to water a bit more frequently, especially during those toasty summer months.

Give your hydrangeas a cozy home by digging a hole two to three times bigger than their pot. Add some nutrient-rich potting soil to pamper their roots. Before planting, gently loosen the edges of the root ball to encourage those roots to explore and grow. If the root ball seems dry, treat them to a refreshing soak in a bucket of water for a few minutes before planting.

Once your hydrangeas are in the ground, give them a good drink of water to settle in comfortably. To help them establish and thrive, keep up with regular watering, especially during their early days. But, here's a friendly reminder: avoid overwatering, as these beauties prefer a healthy balance.
