Hydrangeas will sometimes wilt during the afternoon in hot weather, even if they do not need watering. Then they will perk up when it cools off in the evening. It is important to water so that the soil stays evenly moist like a wrung out sponge, not sopping wet/saturated and not dried out. To know if you need to water, dig into the soil with your finger. If it is still damp, do not water yet. When you do wate,r water slowly and thoroughly soaks it soaks down deep to the roots. After watering, wait a few hours and then dig down to see how far the water went, sometimes it can be surprising.
