Hydrangea quercifolia ‘Snowflake’

This oakleaf Hydrangea is one of the most beautiful of all small summer flowering shrubs. In ‘Snowflake’ the conical heads of double white flowers dangle elegantly over the oak shaped green leaves, large and handsome. The foliage gives lovely autumn tones bronze, red and burgundy. The flower heads last in good shape from summer until winter. Best grown in a shady spot although it is happy enough in full sun as long as it gets extra summer waterings during dry periods. 1m tall x 1m wide.
