Think of Puffer Fish panicle hydrangea (H. paniculata) as a larger, more puffed up Bobo, with fluffy white blooms that engulf the entire plant, nearly obscuring the foliage. The flowers open and mature to a pure white. As the blooms age, they turn lime green and, for a bit of surprise, a fresh sprig of white flowers emerges from the tip of the panicle. A tight, compact habit with stems strong enough to hold its blooms. This NCSU hydrangea has all the talent needed to be a first-class landscape performer. A Proven Winners Color Choice variety.
Flower Colour: Creamy white, develop a green tint in the fall. Flowering Time: July – September Foliage Colour: Green
Care
General Maintenance: Prune in late winter or early spring. These shrubs bloom on new wood, so that ensures the hydrangea blooms every year, regardless of how harsh winter conditions are. Light: Part sun to full sun Watering: Follow a regular watering schedule during the first growing season to establish a deep, extensive root system. Water deeply, less frequently when established. Soil: Adaptable, but prefers moist, rich, loamy soil. It is not particular as to soil type or pH. Fertilizer: Feed in early spring with an all purpose fertilizer prior to the new growth.
