Endless Summer Hydrangea

(picture taken from Google)

I had gotten an Endless Summer Hydrangea from Grandma Jo earlier this summer, and I immediately put it in the ground. I planted it near the fence, where I thought it would get part sun, and it is not doing too good. This is what it looks like now:

It's so sad looking, isn't it? So, I've taken it upon myself to give it some tender care, and water it every evening.

I read up on the Hydrangea plant recently, and I've learned that in the first year that it is planted, it needs lots of water. The following years, not as much water, just during dry spells.

I'm trying to be more consistant with watering it, because it's supposed to be a beautiful plant.

Do you have any hydrangea's around your home? If so, do you feel like you need to water it everyday to keep it from wilting?
