Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Bobo® Hydrangea has loads of flowers on a tiny plant! This dwarf panicle hydrangea will turn heads! Bobo® hydrangea is engulfed by large white flowers in summer. The flowers are held upright on strong stems, and continue to grow and lengthen as they bloom. No flopping, unlike some panicle hydrangeas! As blooms age, they turn pink. It is compact and dwarf in habit, and the flowers cover every inch of the plant right down to the ground. Photo and description courtesy of Proven Winners - www.provenwinners.com - PP22782

A must for every small garden, this adorable dwarf hydrangea is completely covered in white flowers in summer which turn to a glorious pink by autumn. The blooms are held on very sturdy stalks that do not flop! This cutie is only 3' tall and 4' wide so it can fit in a narrow bed or large pot. S-PSh/M PP22782

This baby deciduous shrub is totally dwarfed by the big white mounds of flowers! Somehow, the stems are strong enough to hold the heavy flowers upright all season as they continue to lengthen and grow. 3’ tall, rounded to 4’ wide, small but mighty! This will take full sun to part shade, decent soil and regular water. Nice cut flower (fresh or dried). Super hardy!

We fell in love with Bobo the moment we saw it. This dwarf panicle hydrangea grows to just three feet tall and four feet wide and blooms so heavily with its creamy white, conical inflorescences from early summer to fall that you can hardly see the foliage with flowers right down to the ground! In fall the flowers develop a pinkish hue. Paniculatas are super hardy, bloom on new wood, are fragrant, and make good dried flowers.

A new compact hydrangea for the paniculata family Compact and full blooming member of the paniculata family is here! Beautiful stark white blooms emerge in mid Summer and age pink in the summer. Label says 3 feet!! I hope that is true because we always need another great dwarf. We are even seeing some fall color on the leaves which is exciting! Same breeder as the awesome Pinky Winky hydrangea. Love it!
