Hydrangea 'SMNHSC' Let's Dance ¡Arriba! should be watered regularly with enough water to keep the soil evenly moist. Watering should generally be done on a weekly basis during the growing season, although there may be times when water is needed more or less often. In hot, dry months, the plant may need to be watered twice a week. In cooler, wet months, once a week may be sufficient. The amount of water needed depends on the size of the plant, soil type, climate, and sun exposure. When watering, make sure that the entire root zone is evenly soaked—not just the surface. If the root zone is not thoroughly soaked, water again after a few minutes. Allow time for the excess water to run out before each subsequent watering.

Hydrangea 'SMNHSC' LET'S DANCE ¡ARRIBA! does best in full sun to partial sun conditions. For best results, it should receive at least 4–6 hours of direct sun per day.

Additionally, adequate air circulation should be provided so that the plant does not become overly exposed to intense or direct sunlight.
