Hydrangea Bobo® Panicle Hydrangea

Gold Florall award in 2010

This dwarf Hydrangea is an undeniable asset for any garden, especially those with limited space. Reaching a height of 2½ to 3 feet and a width of 3 to 4 feet, Hydrangea Bobo® covers itself with large white blooms in summer, the flowers held upright on strong stems and taking on a pinkish blush in fall. They appear so abundantly, you can barely see the leaves.

Bobo® blooms from midsummer until early fall, the flowers growing increasingly larger and fuller over time. And since it blooms on new wood, there will always be blossoms ready to put on a show, even after a hard winter. Very reliable and easy to grow, this lovely Hydrangea won the Gold Florall award in 2010 for best novelty plant. Blooming regardless of climate, soil, pH, or pruning, Hydrangea Bobo® even tolerates drought.

Hydrangea Bobo® is also a Proven Winners® ColorChoice® shrub chosen for its exciting color and great garden performance. To be selected for this group, Bobo® had to first be thoroughly tested in trial gardens all around the world, and its health, vigor, and beauty have proven unparalleled.

Plant this charming dwarf Hydrangea in full sun to part shade. Bobo® is adaptable to many soils, but prefers good, loamy areas and requires moderate moisture. Bobo® is an excellent choice for mixed borders or a foundation plant and makes an extremely showy specimen or container plant. Prune Bobo® in late winter or early spring and fertilize in early spring with a slow-release fertilizer specialized for trees and shrubs.

As temperatures drop, some Hydrangea paniculata varieties reward gardeners with soft pink or red hues. This natural shift depends on cool nights and the plant's genetics. In mild climates, blooms may retain their creamy white beauty.
