Common Mistakes That Make Wilted Hydrangeas Worse
Leaving leaves under water
Any leaf below the waterline becomes a bacteria buffet.

You want a clean cut, not a mashed-up stem that can’t pull water.
Putting the bouquet in the wrong spot
Freshly revived blooms hate heat, direct sun, and warm kitchens.
Also, keep them away from ripening fruit, because ethylene gas can speed aging. Yeah, fruit is rude like that.
