Hydrangea paniculata Hybrid ‘LeeP1’ PPAF White Wedding®

From Louisiana breeder Buddy Lee, the new paniculata introduction White Wedding is receiving rave reviews coast to coast. Unlike sometimes drooping comparable varieties, White Wedding elevates large white, pillow-like, conical blooms on sturdy, upright branches. Growing 4-6 feet tall and 3-5 feet wide and blooming all summer, White Wedding provides dazzling beauty as a cut flower and wows in the landscape. Plus, the sturdy bloom stems ship well. Full sun to part shade lover; grows well in most soil types. Late spring to early fall flowering can be extended by dead-heading aging flower clusters. Hardy in USDA Zones 4 to 8.

Lush dark green foliage grows in an upright habit to 6-8 feet tall by 4-6 feet wide. Hardy in USDA Zones 7 to 9.
