My blue hydrangea looked really good when I bought it 2 months ago but now the blooms have turned green and the tips of the leaves have turned brown and started to curl upwardIt is planted in a pot about 3 times its size and gets shade all the timeThis is the first time that I have ever had a hydrangea and I don't know what to do for it please help!!!
It must be very hot in Central TexasThe hydrangea you bought was grown in ideal conditions -cool temperatures, bright indirect light, ample water and acidic soilWhen the blooms turn green, it means there's not enough acid in the soil and the leaves curling up and browning means, it is not watered enough or the soil is not rich and prorousTo rescue the plant, it should be taken indoors until the heat of summer dies down., otherwise, keep the hydrangea in semishade, apply aluminum sulfate ( to make the soil acidic, if you really prefer blue blooms) and water it daily until soaking wet.
