I just purchased an Annabelle hydrangea %26amp; transplanted it into a larger pot. The next day the entire plant is wilted looking. The flower heads are very bowed. It has plenty of moisture. Help??

Why is my newly transplanted hydrangea wilted?
First, make sure it isn't standing in water; too much water is often as bad as too little. Also, be sure that it is in a warm area, and has plenty of light, but NOT direct sunlight for two or three days. Other than that, many plants react very negatively to being transplanted, especially at first; if you had to remove any soil from the root ball, that may also be responsible for the drooping, as the tiniest root hairs may have been damaged or destroyed in the process.
Reply:Make sure there is enough potting soil to pack the plant in firmly. I did that with some pansies and forgot to put enough soil in to keep it firmly against the pot. Sometimes if you put the plant in a pot that is too big, it will wilt. Hydrangeas also don't like full sun, they are a partial to full shade type plant.
Reply:Make sure you have it in full shade and check deep into the soil for moisture. Hydrangeas love acidic food. It might be in shock.
Reply:it is just in transplant shock and it should perk up in a few days also make sure you give it enough water .
Reply:It may just be the shock of the transplant. Just keep it well hydrated and it should perk up in a few days to a week.
