Bobo hydrangea is grown for its tidy, upright habit and large white blossoms. The blossoms appear in mid-summer through fall, are cone-shaped, and darken to pink over time. This shrub grows to 3 feet tall and 3 to 4 feet wide. It has dark green foliage throughout the growing season.

This hydrangea will grow in full sun but performs best in afternoon shade in Kansas. It requires evenly moist soil with lots of organic matter but has low requirements otherwise. This variety works well as a foundation plant, in woodland gardens, or as an accent when planted in groups.
