How to Care for the Plant

Water
Water deeply once a week, and maybe more, if the weather is particularly hot or dry.
Pruning
Most species require little pruning except the removal of dead flower heads after blooming or in early spring.
Fertilizer
Hydrangea fertilization needs vary greatly, depending on your intended bloom color. Certain elements of the fertilizer affect the soil pH, which is a major determinant of bloom color in the pink/blue hydrangea varieties.

Sunlight
The location should be sunny or partly shaded, planting on the eastern side of a building ensures that, in the afternoon, when the sun is at its hottest, your plants are in the shade.
Soil
Choose a good garden soil, moist and high in organic matter, to give your hydrangea a strong start. Make sure your plant has good drainage. If the soil is too wet, the roots might rot, and the plant will die.
