Description

Hydrangea paniculata Bobo® is a charming, compact deciduous shrub prized for its abundant, cone-shaped flower clusters and its exceptionally hardy, dwarf habit. This award-winning selection forms a dense, rounded mound of rich green, oval, pointed leaves. From midsummer through autumn, it produces an abundance of large, conical panicles of creamy-white flowers that gradually blush to soft pink as they age, creating a long-lasting, multi-toned display. Exceptionally cold-hardy and easy to grow, it is an outstanding choice for borders, foundation plantings, containers, and mass plantings.

Faqs

Q: How large does Bobo® Panicle Hydrangea get?
A: It is a compact dwarf selection, typically reaching only 3-4 feet in both height and spread at maturity. (Note: The 5-10 ft height you provided is likely a discrepancy — Bobo® is widely known as a dwarf variety, reaching only 3-4 ft.)

Q: When does it bloom?
A: It blooms from midsummer through autumn, producing large, conical panicles of creamy-white flowers that gradually blush to soft pink.

Q: How much sun does it need?
A: It performs best in full sun to partial shade. In hotter climates, some afternoon shade is beneficial to prevent wilting.

Q: Is it cold hardy?
A: Yes, it is one of the most cold-hardy hydrangeas, reliably surviving in USDA zones 4-9.

Q: Does it need pruning?
A: Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. It blooms on new wood, so pruning at this time will not sacrifice flowers. Cut back by about one-third to maintain shape and encourage vigorous flowering.

Q: Can it be grown in containers?
A: Yes, its compact dwarf habit and long bloom season make it an outstanding choice for containers on patios and entryways.
