To ensure the health and beauty of Hydrangea macrophylla 'Hot Red Purple', follow these maintenance tips:

1. Light Requirements: Plant in a location that receives morning sun and afternoon shade. 'Hot Red Purple' thrives in partial shade, as excessive sun exposure can lead to sunburned foliage and decreased flower production.

2. Soil Conditions: Provide well-draining soil that is rich in organic matter. Hydrangeas prefer slightly acidic to neutral soil pH. Amend the soil with compost or peat moss before planting to improve fertility and drainage.

3. Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist, especially during hot and dry periods. Hydrangeas are thirsty plants and require regular watering. Avoid overwatering, as it can lead to root rot. Apply mulch around the base to help retain moisture and regulate soil temperature.

4. Fertilization: Feed 'Hot Red Purple' with a balanced slow-release fertilizer in early spring and again after the first bloom. This will provide the necessary nutrients for healthy growth and vibrant blooms. Follow the package instructions for proper application rates.

5. Pruning: Prune 'Hot Red Purple' in late winter or early spring to remove any dead or damaged branches and to shape the plant. Avoid excessive pruning, as it can reduce the number of blooms. If necessary, thin out overcrowded branches to improve air circulation.

6. Winter Protection: In colder regions, protect the plant during winter by applying a layer of mulch around the base and wrapping the branches with burlap. This will provide insulation and protect the plant from freezing temperatures.
