I just planted 3 hydrangeas and they aren't looking so good, what should I do? Do they need fertilizer?

If you just planted them, no fertilizer, it will kill them for sure. They need lots of water for one thing. Make sure that when you planted them that the original soil level (from the pot you bought it in) is above the ground level just a bit otherwise you will suffocate them. They need at least afternoon shade too, water water water them the first few days.

hydrangeas are thirsty little things.. water! Water! WATER!!!





Probably a couple times a day until they stabilize.. morning and afternoon.
Reply:They probably are going through shock, which is normal right after planting. Make sure they are partially shaded and give them fertilizer, fish emulsion if you are an organic grower, if not then read the labels on the store bought stuff to see if it is right for your plant.
Reply:Well, you need to be a little bit more descriptive as to what is ailing your hydrangeas. Were these gifts or purchased around Easter? If so, they may not be hardy if you live in a colder climate. If they came from a garden shop and are designated hardy for your area, you should be ok.





They could be suffering from shock of being transplanted, they may need more water, or you may have a soil issue. You should consult a local landscaper or professional gardener.
