    Hi Everyone,

    I'm new to the forum and am looking forward to learning quite a bit about gardening. However, my first question is an emergency garden question. Any insight would be most appreciated.

    My hydrangea leaves are turning yellow and are looking wilted with the edges are brown and crisp looking. I'm afraid I'm going to loose it without some intervention. Its planted in early morning sun/shade for the rest of the day. We have been hit with a heat wave last 10 days, however, I've been watering 2x per day (light hose stream for about 30 minutes each time at the base). It is mulched (2"). Its a big leaf, mophead. Any suggestions would be most appreciated.

    Many Thanks!!!!

    Might be too wet at the root.
