Notes
'Silver Dollar' panicle hydrangea (Hydrangea paniculata 'Silver Dollar') is a shrub for borders, specimen planting, hedges, and privacy screens. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to wet, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It sits low on the menu for deer. It grows at a rapid rate and has an arching habit. Bees visit the summer blooms, and the plant tolerates salt.
Pairs well with American cranberrybush, Western sword fern, and Rainforest Sunrise hosta.
