Hydrangea quercifolia 'Snow Flake' PP3047

Description

For partially shaded gardens, oakleaf hydrangeas are a must. Native to the American southeast, it combines boldness of form with multiple seasons of interest. The plants present enormous panicles of creamy-white, fully double flowers held at the ends of stems clad with the namesake oak-like foliage. The flowers and the foliage mature beautifully. The panicles turn deep red and, finally, golden brown; the leaves gradually adopt a deep wine-red hue in autumn. After the leaves drop, the exfoliating golden bark adds winter interest. This selection comes to us from plantsman Eddy Aldridge.
