Gold Florall award in 2010
Introducing Park Seed's Bobo® Hydrangea, a jewel among dwarf hydrangea varieties, designed to bring unparalleled beauty to gardens of any size, especially those where space is at a premium. This compact powerhouse stands 2½ to 3 feet tall and stretches 3 to 4 feet wide, boasting an abundance of white flowers that gently turn pink as the season progresses from summer into fall. The Bobo Hydrangea's flower buds are a testament to its strength, blooming profusely on sturdy stems that ensure the plant remains laden with blooms, almost obscuring its foliage.
From the heat of midsummer to the cooler days of early fall, Bobo Hydrangea's flowers expand in size, offering a stunning visual evolution that captivates and delights. Unique in its ability to produce blooms on new wood, it ensures a display of breathtaking white to pink flowers annually, bouncing back with vigor even after the coldest winters. This attribute, along with its dazzling flower colors, earned Bobo Hydrangea the esteemed Gold Florall award in 2010 for the best novelty plant, highlighting its ease of cultivation and steadfast performance. Its adaptability to various climates, soil types, pH levels, and pruning schedules, coupled with its drought tolerance, underscores its resilience.
As part of the Proven Winners® ColorChoice® collection, Bobo Hydrangea has been rigorously tested in trial gardens across the globe, affirming its health, vigor, and unmatched aesthetic appeal. This hydrangea paniculata Bobo variety stands out for its striking flower colors, substantial root system, and resistance to common ailments like leaf spot, earning its place in the discerning gardener's collection.
Suited for planting in full sun to part shade, the Bobo Hydrangea thrives in various soils, preferring well-drained, loamy conditions with moderate moisture. It excels in mixed borders, foundation plantings, and as an eye-catching container or specimen plant. Encourage lush growth and abundant flower buds by pruning in late winter and applying a slow-release fertilizer formulated for trees and shrubs come spring.
