watering

Panicle hydrangea (Hydrangea paniculata 'Ilvobo' BOBO) should be watered about once a week or when the top 2-3 inches of soil feels dry. Water deeply, saturating the roots and allowing excess moisture to drain away. Do not leave the plant standing in water. During the heat of the summer, it may need to be watered more frequently.

sunlight

The panicle hydrangea (Hydrangea paniculata 'Ilvobo' BOBO) thrives when it is exposed to 4 to 6 hours of direct sunlight each day. When exposed to more than this, the flowers may become too big and heavy for the stems to support and the leaves may begin to show signs of scorching. For flowers to remain in a healthy condition and to be produced abundantly, the panicle hydrangea should be planted in a spot that receives full sun in the morning or late afternoon, but is shaded during the hottest part of the day.

pruning

Panicle hydrangea (Hydrangea paniculata 'Ilvobo' BOBO) should be pruned annually in the late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Generally, pruning should consist of light pruning, such as cutting back overgrown stems and removing dead or diseased wood. To keep this shrub looking its best, remove no more than 1-third of the plant’s stems at each pruning. It is important to not over-prune, as panicle hydrangeas are best when allowed to reach their natural shape.
