Hydrangea paniculata

Hydrangea paniculata Mix – Standard Form – Supplied as a 60cm Stem in a 5-Litre Pot

Plant Highlights: Elegant standard (clear stem) form • Large cone-shaped flower heads • Long flowering season • Ideal as a patio or garden focal point • Mixed selection of panicle hydrangeas

Overview

This mixed selection of Hydrangea paniculata is supplied as an elegant standard plant, with a clear stem of approximately 60cm supporting a rounded flowering head. As this is a mixed assortment, the exact cultivar and flower colour will vary, but each plant shares the reliable flowering performance and graceful cone-shaped blooms that make panicle hydrangeas so popular.

Standard hydrangeas create an instant focal point in borders, entrances and patio containers, lifting the flowers above surrounding planting for maximum impact. They provide a long season of interest through summer and into autumn, with blooms often developing changing tones as they mature, depending on the variety supplied.

Plant Details

Growing Guide

Plant in fertile, moisture-retentive but well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade. Water regularly while establishing and during prolonged dry periods, particularly when grown in containers. Apply a mulch in spring to help retain soil moisture and feed with a balanced fertiliser as new growth begins.

Choose a sheltered position where the flowering head is protected from strong winds, especially during the first growing seasons.

Pruning

Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Remove any dead or weak growth and shorten the previous season's flowering shoots to maintain a balanced, rounded crown. As panicle hydrangeas flower on the current season's growth, annual pruning encourages vigorous new shoots and abundant flowering.

Good to Know
