Cultural
Paniculata thrive in full sun to part shade, though in hotter climates, they benefit from some afternoon shade to prevent leaf scorch. They prefer well-draining soil rich in organic matter. After flowering, deadhead and prune the plant to maintain its shape; if needed, it can be cut back quite hard without harm. For optimal growth, apply an organic slow-release fertiliser in late spring. While generally pest-resistant, it's wise to keep an eye out for common issues such as aphids or powdery mildew.
Landscape Uses
Its' striking, large flower clusters make it an excellent focal point in garden beds or borders. It pairs beautifully with perennials, shrubs, and grasses, adding a burst of colour and texture to mixed borders. Great for large pots and containers, making them perfect for patios, decks, or small gardens. When mass-planted, they create an incredible display. Additionally, their long-lasting blooms are perfect for floral arrangements and can be used as cut flowers in indoor displays.
