Make sure it’s in part sun, try to give it dappled light rather than direct light if possible. It doesn’t look that bad, it just needs some sort of adjustment. Good luck!

Ok

Hydrangeas take in water on their flowers too, when it’s not in direct light (and won’t be for a while- don’t want them to burn) mist / gently water the flowers!

Be sure to remove old flowers.

hydrangeas take in water from the petals so when you water be sure to soak the roots as well as the plant itself
