Flutegirl,
I had the same problem. While this is my first time planting them I have a good nursery that offers help from a horticulturist. I bought three and they all were blooming. Within three weeks they were dying. I was told to water them alot. Like 20 minutes of a dripping hose on each plant every two days. She taught me to place two fingers a half inch deep and you should feel some moisture, but not wet.
Hope this helps.

Water! Hydrangeas are water lovers. I have three and the only one that gets really big and does well is the one right next to my leaky faucet, lol!
