Default Mildew on my Hydrangea leaves

I've got a problem with my Hydrangea plants getting mildew on the
leaves. They are now dropping off and new healthy leaves are forming.
I was wondering why this happened and how to prevent this next time.
Also I've heard that they should have filtered sunlight, this is very
hard to achieve where I am as I like to see them and there is no place
suitable for me to put them.


I have a few bushes and they are in shade most of the day but get full
sun late in the afternoon which in summer leaves them looking very sad
and wilted however they have survived this for over 25 years. I think
full sun for any longer would kill them off though
