watering
This specific type of panicle hydrangea (Hydrangea paniculata 'Bokraflame' MAGICAL CANDLE) should be watered thoroughly and deeply once per week in order to soak the roots. During really hot weather, you may have to water 2-3 times per week, but make sure the dirt remains consistently moist. During the winter months, you can reduce the watering to once every 2 weeks but never let it completely dry out. Make sure to check the soil before every watering and adjust accordingly.
sunlight
Panicle Hydrangea (Hydrangea paniculata 'Bokraflame' MAGICAL CANDLE) requires an average of 6-8 hours of direct sunlight each day. Place the plant in a location that receives bright morning sunlight and afternoon shade. This will help protect it from the scorching midday sun. The plant should be kept out of direct winds and hot areas with reflected heat. Water the plant 2 to 3 times weekly in periods of drought, and mulch soil to help conserve moisture. Avoid overwatering the plant; allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings will help to ensure the health of the plant. Prune the plant in late winter and early spring to maintain desired shape and size.
pruning
Panicle hydrangeas (Hydrangea paniculata 'Bokraflame' MAGICAL CANDLE) should be pruned twice a year for best results: in late winter before any new growth begins and late summer after flowering has finished. In the late winter, simply remove any dead wood or stems that were not healthy over the winter season. It is also recommended to remove any stems that are crossing, rubbing, or otherwise competing with each other. In late summer, prune back stems that have finished flowering by up to 1-third of their original size. This encourages the shrub to produce more flowers and fuller foliage. To keep the shrub blooming well for years to come, it is important not to trim too harshly. Err on the side of caution and only prune lightly.
Season
The best time to start harvesting the fruits from Hydrangea paniculata 'Bokraflame' MAGICAL CANDLE is in July and August.
