Hydrangea quercifolia 'Snow Queen'


Hydrangea quercifolia 'Snow Queen' (Hydrangea quercifolia (Oak-leaved hydrangea))

This has actually grown a lot slower than my Sikes Dwarf oakleaf and the flowers are smaller too. Overall I think it looks nicer though, the flowers aren't flopping over and it is better branched.

Nice you are going to have some large shrubs in a few years.

I have this nice Hydrangea, too, Rkwright. Mine seems little bit higher. For how long do you have yours? They are great in September, you will see ;-)

I've had this one for 3-4 years and this is the first time it has flowered. Before this year the rabbits and deer would usually eat the buds and sometimes half the plant! They do get nice fall color, I have several varieties of oakleaf hydrangea and the prettiest fall colors are on 'Little Honey' (bright red) and 'Burgundy' (deep purple-red). I can't wait for this one to get big but I think this one will stay smaller than 'Alice' and 'Snowflake'.
