Why does your Hydrangea macrophylla Magical Coral have drooping leaves? Diagnose the cause and fix it with our step-by-step guide.
Hydrangeas are famously thirsty due to their large leaf surface area; a lack of moisture causes a loss of turgor pressure in the cells, leading to immediate wilting.
If the soil remains saturated for too long, oxygen is displaced from the root zone, causing roots to decay and lose their ability to transport water to the leaves.
In high temperatures, the 'Magical Coral' variety may lose water through its leaves faster than the roots can absorb it from the soil.
Water molds like Phytophthora can invade the vascular system of the hydrangea, physically blocking the flow of water through the stems.
