Where are you located and do you know what sort of hydrangea it is? Photos? I am guessing that it is some sort of bigleaf hydrangea, Hydrangea macrophylla, in which case, the lack of flowers can most likely be due to winter or late spring cold damage. If so and if you are located in a colder zone (below 7), you will need to provide winter protection for this to plant to bloom successfully.

ps. typing in all caps is the online equivalent of shouting. It's disconcerting and difficult to read, in addition to being considered rude. Please don't :-))

Google "foil wrapped hydrangea" or "gift hydrangea" and you'll get tons of interesting results, including many posts from this very forum.

You'll not only learn a ton more than what can be said here, but you'll save everyone here from repeating themselves for the four hundred seventy five millionth time. ;)

Go light with fertilizers. Some Miracle Grow formulations have a lot of nitrogen. Hydrangeas can do with no ferts or a single annual application of a slow release fertilizer.
