A lovely white hydrangea dedicated to Kennebunker!
This Hydrangea paniculata 'Grandiflora' is commonly called ‘Peegee’! and its one of several types of hydrangea I have planted in our garden! Photo posted at long last and dedicated to my friend, Kennebunker!
Peegee hydrangea is a large shrub or small tree from Asia that is best grown in organically rich, moist, well-drained soils in full sun to part shade. It is a vigorous grower and can reach up to 25 feet tall but can be pruned shorter to maintain a better shape. It is one of the hardiest hydrangeas and tolerates urban conditions.
The large creamy white flower panicles can be encouraged to grow even larger by pruning the shrub to 6- 10 stems. The weight of the flowers causes the stems to arch downwards as is happening to mine! I have grown to love hydrangea, but hate the practice of adding chemicals to change the colour of the flowers. These I have are completely natural and untainted by these chemicals.
