Description
Hydrangea paniculata ‘Skyfall’ is a new creation with a remarkably compact habit and very large flowers. Its conical panicles are composed of white flowers that resemble hyacinths, which gradually take on a pale pink hue over time. They are supported by particularly robust stems, which are unaffected by the weight of rain-laden flowers. Its foliage is a deep green. Very hardy and tolerant of sun and slightly calcareous soils, this shrub is very well suited to pot culture.
Hydrangea paniculata ‘Skyfall’ (‘Frenne’ PBR) is a recent Dutch selection, similar to the famous ‘Limelight’ cultivar but with noticeably larger inflorescences and a more modest stature. The Hydrangea paniculata species is native to the temperate eastern regions of China and Japan. Like the species, ‘Skyfall’ has excellent hardiness (down to -25 °C) and adapts to sun and relative drought, while being more tolerant of calcareous soils than the traditional Hydrangea macrophylla. It forms a compact bush with an upright and ramified habit, reaching about 120 cm (47.2 in) in height by 70 cm (27.6 in) in spread, with rapid growth. Its flowering usually begins in early July and continues until October. Initially greenish-white, its slender panicles, over 30 cm (11.8 in) long, composed of large star-shaped florets with long curved petals, turn delicately pink with the first signs of cold. Its sturdy branches effortlessly support the weight of the flowers. They are covered with beautiful deep green, ovate, deciduous foliage.
Planted in any good garden soil, albeit not too calcareous, Hydrangea paniculata ‘Skyfall’ displays rapid growth. It is a very hardy variety, which can be planted in a low hedge or in a mixed bed with other hydrangeas and perpetual roses to play with contrasts and shapes. Its small stature allows it to be incorporated into a small garden and to be grown without difficulty in a large pot on the terrace where it will live for many years with some additions of fertiliser and regular watering.

Planting and care
Hydrangea paniculata Skyfall is not very demanding about the nature of the soil, as long as it is not too heavy, and not too chalky. It requires a sunny exposure that is not scorching, or one that is partially shaded. When planting, install it in deeply worked soil. A good base fertiliser (horn or dried blood) will aid the recovery of your young plant and feed it without risk of burning. If your soil is dry, mix our STOCKOSORB® water retainer with the soil when filling in the planting hole and provide a watering basin on the surface.
At the end of summer, we advise you not to cut the dry panicles, which will protect the terminal shoots of the branches in winter; you should cut all the dry flowers at the end of February or at the first signs of good weather. The plant's spring vegetation appears rather late.
Hydrangea Paniculata: these shrubby hydrangeas with elongated inflorescences are resistant to drought and easily settle even in non-acidic soil. They flower generously from June until the frosts. Planted in the sun, their inflorescences change colour in the autumn.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
