Hydrangea paniculata, Sieb. Shrub or small tree, to 30 ft., with dense globose head: lvs. elliptic or ovate, acuminate, serrate, sparingly pubescent above, more densely on the veins beneath, 2-5 in.: panicle 6-12 in. long: fls. whitish, the sterile ones changing later to purplish; styles 3: caps, with the margin of the calyx about at the middle. Aug., Sept. Japan, China. S.Z. 61. F.E. 15:501; 34:387. F.R. 21:9. G.W. 2, p. 114; 12, p. 366. G.C. III. 9:553. Gn. 59, p. 181; 75, p. 548; 76, p. 5. Mn. 9:75. The following varieties are cult.: Var. floribunda, Regel. Panicles large, with more and larger sterile fls. Gt. 16:530. Var. grandiflora, Sieb. (var. hortensis, Maxim.). Fig. 1930. Almost all fls. sterile; panicles very large and showy. F.S. 16:1665, 1666. Gn. 10:37; 38, p. 569; 54, p. 376; 64, p. 407; 72, p. 560. R.H. 1873:50; 1899, pp. 130. 131. Mn. 8:119. A.G. 18:313. Gng. 3:357; 5:3. F.E. 8:214. S.H. 1:174. G.M. 39:728; 46:794. Gn.M. 2:67. A.F. 17:194, 517. C.L.A. 7:43. G.W. 8, p. 210; 15, p. 454. G.Z. 10:80. Var. praecox, Rehd. Fig. 1931. Almost like the type, but flowering about 6 weeks earlier, in the middle of July; sepals usually elliptic. G.F. 10:363 (adapted in Fig. 1931). The late-flowering typical form is sometimes called var. tardiva, Hort.—//. paniculata var. grandiflora is the common hydrangea of lawns. It is seen to best effect when planted close in front of heavy shrubbery. Cut back rather heavily in early spring.
