Pollination Info

Pollination Info: Bobo Hydrangea (Hydrangea paniculata 'ILVOBO')

Bobo Hydrangea is primarily pollinated by bees, butterflies, and other insects. Its showy white flowers produce nectar and pollen, which serve as a food source for these pollinators.

Unlike some other hydrangea varieties, Bobo Hydrangea does not require cross-pollination to produce fruit or seeds. This is because it is a sterile cultivar and is unable to produce viable seeds. However, even though it does not produce seeds, it is still an important plant for supporting pollinators and promoting biodiversity in your garden.

To attract pollinators to your Bobo Hydrangea, plant it in a sunny location with well-draining soil. Provide plenty of water, especially during periods of drought, and avoid using pesticides or other chemicals that can harm pollinators.
