Recommendations For Hydrangea With White Blooms

hydrangea pannicle

Q: I am trying to find a hydrangea that grows at least 8 to 10 feet tall,
preferably with white blooms. My back yard gets plenty of morning sun but
by 2 o’clock it’s full shade. 

A: It is not a hydrangea but snowball viburnum, Viburnum macrocephalum,
grows that tall and has white blooms in the spring. Watch for the eye-catching
blooms in early April. The old-fashioned pannicle hydrangea grows to your
specifications as well. Look for Hydrangea panniculata ‘Grandiflora’or
‘Tardiva’.
