The characteristics of Hydrangea paniculata Pixio®
Hydrangea paniculata Pixio® is a dwarf selection of the panicle hydrangea, native to China and Japan, and valued for its reduced size and floriferous nature. Its dense, rounded habit makes it ideal for small spaces, while its sturdy stems support abundant conical inflorescences up to 20 cm long. Flowers emerge pure white in midsummer, gradually shifting to soft pink as the season progresses, providing dynamic colour interest. Exceptionally hardy, this cultivar withstands temperatures down to -25 °C, making it suitable for a wide range of climates.
How to use Hydrangea paniculata Pixio® ?
Thanks to its compact form, Hydrangea paniculata Pixio® is highly versatile in landscape design. It performs well in mixed borders, small shrub beds, or as a focal point in container plantings. Its extended bloom period also makes it suitable for low hedging or mass planting in public and residential landscapes. This cultivar is particularly valued for small gardens or urban settings, where space is limited but high ornamental value is desired.
Cultivation tips for Hydrangea paniculata Pixio®
For optimal growth, plant Hydrangea paniculata Pixio® in well-drained, humus-rich soil with consistent moisture. Space plants approximately 70–80 cm apart in mass plantings. It thrives in full sun to partial shade, with more intense flower colours in sunny exposures. Prune in late winter or early spring to encourage vigorous new shoots and abundant flowering. Water regularly during dry spells, especially in the first two years. Apply a balanced slow-release fertiliser in spring to sustain healthy growth and prolific blooms.
