Understanding Plant Options
Nature Hills offers plants in two main formats:
- Container Plants: Grown in pots with soil, sized by container volume and plant age

Growing Zones 4-8
Large, lacy panicles adorn the Confetti™ Panicle Hydrangea(Hydrangea paniculata 'Vlasveld02') and feature branches, that when in bloom, can grow up to 5 to 6 feet tall! The tall, terminal cone-shaped blooms open white and quickly age to pink from the bottom up before turning into botanical tan-dried winter interest to finish the year! Light and airy from top to bottom, these are highly desirable flowering shrubs!
A lovely, rounded, green shrub in the spring, the summer is when the Confetti™ really shines! As development of the huge, panicled flowers, growing up to 12 inches on contrasting red stems emerge to turn heads near and far! These long-lasting flowers continue to bloom well into autumn and look fantastic swaying in the breeze, or standing tall in a slender vase!
The gorgeous appearance and lightly scented flowers make these great for cutting, for your own home-grown floral arrangement. The flowers dry nicely on the plant for winter interest or for dried flower bouquets. Panicle Hydrangea are hardy in USDA growing zones 4-8, these are very adaptable shrubs with few requirements to keep them looking spiffy! No need to worry your acidic soil will turn these blossoms blue either!
Planting and Application:
Plant them in informal hedges, as anchor plants for sheds or garages, as screening plants, or as backdrops for mixed shrub borders and perennial beds. Try them in large planters for an elevated screen or accent! Screen off your seating areas for privacy and help whisk the world away. Use as borders and backdrops to other garden beds and soften corners of hardscapes. One would look fantastic accenting the corner of your home or as a foundation hedge on the part shade side of your home!
You won't be the only one in love with your Confetti Hydrangea. It will also attract pollinators, like birds and butterflies, even a hummingbird or two! Groupings of these shrubs make fantastic woodland gardens and bird-friendly habitats while slowing wind and keeping out prying eyes. Woody Hydrangea are prime nesting and foraging shrubs too, offering plenty for your local songbirds!

#ProPlantTips for Care:
Full sun brings the most blooms, but the Confetti Hydrangea tolerates part shade also, especially in warmer climates. Provide well-drained soil and keep watered as the blooms develop for the largest blooms. The easy-care Panicle Hydrangea is low maintenance, with pruning recommended only once a year, in late winter or early spring. This woody Hydrangea only needs to be cut back by about 1/3 reduction of overall size, leaving a somewhat rounded outline, for a nice form as it develops.
- Full Sun & Partial Shade
- Moist Well-Drained Soil
- Appreciates Mulched Beds
- Prune Late Winter/Early Spring
- Low Maintenance
