Hydrangea paniculata 'Bombshell' (PBR)
hydrangea
A cultivar of Hydrangea paniculata, which is currently making a big splash 'on the scene'. It is unique because it has a compact habit, and almost rounded flowerheads, which appear prolifically for a long period from mid-summer. It also tends to form a more branching shrub than many of the other varieties currently available. A wonderful plant, its creamy-white flowers often emerge with a pale pink eye, and this becomes more pronounced as the flowers mature during the summer. The flower-heads are excellent in dried arrangements.
How to care for Hydrangea paniculata Bombshell (PBR):
To enhance flowering prune hard in early spring, cutting back the previous season's shoots to within a few buds of the permanent, woody framework of the plant.
