Named after the fabled Greek hero Hercules, this plant shows off its strength in both size and durability like its namesake as it will stand the test of all types of conditions and show how it is quite the spectacle in any garden. Huge, spectacular plumes which are bursting with large soft shaded green blooms, give Hydrangea 'Hercules' its name as they grow up to 40cm each. With large strong shoots, this shrub stands tall and proud above other flowers which gives it the power to show off in urban conditions as well as low temperatures.
The magnificent blooms make elegant cut flowers, providing exceptional late summer colour in woodland gardens and mixed borders before the vibrant autumn foliage takes centre stage. A wonderful specimen shrub for a prime position. Height and spread: 200cm (79").

Hydrangea paniculata prefers a sunny or semi shaded position, with shelter from cold, drying winds. Grow hydrangea plants in any non alkaline, fertile, moist soil. Improve the soil prior to planting by adding with plenty of well rotted manure or garden compost, ensuring that it is mixed in thoroughly and deeply.
More Info Water regularly until plants are fully established. Leave the faded hydrangea flower heads in place until the new buds swell in spring to protect the delicate buds from frost damage. Prune after flowering, reducing the stems to restrict their growth to the available space and to improve the shape of the plant. If necessary, Hydrangea paniculata will tolerate hard pruning of the oldest stems to a few buds from ground level. This will also encourage larger flower heads to be produced. After pruning hydrangeas, apply a mulch of well rotted manure or compost around the base of the plant. Caution: irritant to skin and eyes, harmful if eaten.
