Handsome creamy white panicles contrasting with upright dark red stems Candlelight® has large creamy white cone-shaped panicles on upright dark red stems. The contrast between flower and stem is striking. The open panicles carry both sterile and fertile flowers. As summer advances, the flowers take on soft shades of gentle pink which become increasingly pronounced until the panicles are a strong dark pink. The Hydrangea paniculata CANDLELIGHT® is a particularly upright and branched shrub. Thanks to its vigorous and vertical growth, its flowers remain firm all summer. Growing no higher than 1.5 m, it can be planted either in boxes or in the ground, singly or in mixed beds.

Abundant flower heads on strong stems SWEET SUMMER is remarkable for its about 20 - 25 cm long, dense, cone shaped panicles. The sterile flowers are at first green, then white, and finally pink, and bloom progressively from the bottom to the top, the flowers thus offer a pretty layering. The very small fertile flowers are naturally hidden. The flowers renew themselves all summer long. the shrub simultaneously carries panicles of all three shades.The flower stems are strong and stay well upright, without dropping due to the weight of the panicles in full bloom.The heads can be used as cut or dried flowers. In autumn, the foliage turns from yellow to purple red. Trophies: Silver Medal at PLANTARIUM 2013 (Boskoop - Netherlands)

A compact novelty with evolving colours Magical Vesuvio is a handsome novelty of Hydrangea paniculata with evolving colours. The panicles carry sterile and fertile flowers. Readily flowering, its strongly cone-shaped panicles change during the summer from white to dark red. Its compact shape will grow no higher and wider than 1.5 m and is thus ideal for boxes, small gardens or flowering hedges.

A very early white and a summery red!Prim'Red® has been selected for its remarkable precocity and its flower colours that evolve through the season. At the end of May or the beginning of June, according to the region, the flowers open to a creamy white which very rapidly, in two or three weeks, turns pink then red. This radiant colour remains for a long time, into July and August, sustaining the interest of the plant in comparison to typical paniculata like Dahrumas, which have a tendency to fade quickly.The large panicles are elegant, containing both sterile flowers that are pink to bright red, and fertile flowers, which are bright red (except for the stamens). Prim?Red® forms a small shrub up to 1.5 m with upright stems that branch freely and naturally. Given its precocity, pruning should be light, so as not to restrict its flowering. Better still would be a simple tidying-up.

The first hydrangea paniculata of the season. PRIM'WHITE® has been selected from seedlings of Hydrangea paniculata 'Dharuma'. Flowering on the previous year's growth, the shrub is very early flowering from the end of May or June (depending on the region), this shrub produces elegant white, slightly flat flower panicles. The abundant sterile flowers have large sepals which start cream-coloured then turn white. In good conditions a second flowering prolongs its decorative interest in August - September..This small plant with fine grey-green wood, pale green foliage and very red stalks is of small growth. Well branched, it has a more regular shape and better growth characteristics than its parent plant.The different varieties of the Hydrangea paniculata range, supplied by SAPHO, go well in a shrub border together with perennials or in a pot.
