# I had this potted hydrangea for a few weeks now. One of the flower…

_Posted by Sophie on 2024-06-01_

I had this potted hydrangea for a few weeks now. One of the flower head wilted suddenly today . It was very strange because all other heads are fine, also it is not a fully bloomed one. The soil was still damp when this happed. I water it quite frequently (2-3 times a week). Any ideas why ? Thanks in advance.

Is it aphids? They have had a lot of my flowering plants recently

Mist it and use warm water when you water it
