Description

Fully deserving of its RHS Award of Garden Merit, Hydrangea paniculata �Silver Dollar� produces dense, creamy-white, cone-shaped flowers that will flush with pink as they age, with a delicate fragrance. All whilst creating a dramatic statement in your garden!

These distinctive hydrangeas will fill your summer beds, borders, or patio pots with wonderful colour. They�re particularly striking when paired with other hydrangeas yet look stunning enough on their own.

Each year, strong, upright stems are produced with lush mid-green foliage, which are topped with huge, conical-shaped panicles of flowers that will quite simply take your breath away.

If you can bear to cut them, the fresh blooms make an imposing display in a vase and the dried flowerheads can be used as a permanent decoration.

Supplied as an established plants in a 7/9cm pot, ready to be planted out

Top Tips

To extend the seasonal interest, leave some flowerheads on the plants over winter, where they will look gorgeous covered with frost - and of course, they will provide shelter for overwintering wildlife.

Care Information

Just plant in position, water well, and add some fertiliser � they will burst into growth and flower profusely all summer!
These plants are at their best in moist soil as long as it is well-drained, in sun or part shade. The more sun the plant gets, the better the flower colour.
A moisture-loving plant, remember to water regularly and deeply.
Hardy in the UK, frost can cause a lot of damage to young buds, reducing the number of flowers, so protect your plant with fleece if freezing weather is likely.
Pruning is generally best carried out in early spring. A general tidy-up is usually all that is needed and consists of removing the dead bloom from each stem, cutting back to the first strong, healthy pair of buds down from the faded flower.
As hydrangeas flower on the previous year's growth, in spring cut out 1 or 2 of the oldest stems at the base to encourage the production of new, replacement growth that will carry more flowers.
