Hydrangea arborscens, SMOOTH HYDRANGEA, 'Annabelle', 4,5,6,7,8, Cut Mature height - 4'x4', Growth - Med., Light - S-Psh, Soil - Med., Origin - Eastern US Flower Color - white, Flower Time - July, Aug, Sept, Large white mop head flowers every year. The size of blooms has meant some have adopted the use of peony cages to support plant. Put in food coloring to add some color as a cut flower. As it blooms on new as well as old wood you can cut it down with a lawn mower in the fall and still have blooms next year. Hydrangea paniculata, PG HYDRANGEA, 'Grandiflora', 4,5,6,7,8, Cut Mature height - 9'x9', Growth - Med., Light - S, Soil - Med., Origin - China, Japan Flower Color - white and pink, Flower Time - Jul, Aug, Sept, Oct Probably best trained into a tree where the large flower heads will turn its branches into a weeper. As the white blooms age they fade to a pretty pink. Blooms are tight like an ice cream cone and very popular for drying. Easy care, blooms on new wood. Hydrangea paniculata, PG HYDRANGEA, 'Kyushu', 4,5,6,7,8, Cut Mature height - 9'x9', Growth - Med., Light - S, Soil - Med., Origin - Japan Flower Color - white-pink, Flower Time - Aug, Sept, Oct, Taking over from 'Tardiva' as a better later blooming PG Hydrangea, that has shiny green foliage. Easy care, blooms on new wood. Hydrangea paniculata, 'Unique', Z 4,5,6,7,8, Cut Mature height - 9'x9', Growth - Med., Light - S, Soil - Med., Origin - China, Japan Flower Color - white and pink, Flower Time - Jun, Jul, Aug, Sept Enormous open, white conical blooms in late June, slightly earlier than 'Grandiflora', that fade to pink. Quite breathtaking in moonlight, or cooling in in the summers heat. Either grow as a shrub or prune to a 'standard' as recommended for the species. Easy care, blooms on new wood. OAK LEAF HYDRANGEAS epitomize the quest for a shrub that looks good, 12 months of the year, there's always something to admire, must have plant in any garden. Hydrangea quercifolia, OAK LEAF HYDRANGEA, Z 5,6,7,8,9, Cut/Bark Mature height - 7'x7', Growth - Med., Light - S-Psh, Soil - Med, Origin SE - US Large oak type leaf emerges with white underside prevalent. White blooms up to 6'' - 9'' long in late June that fade to pink. Magnificent wine-red fall color on leaves that are nearly the last to fall of all shrubs. Cinnamon bark as well makes this truly one of our favorites. Hydrangea quercifolia, 'Sikes Dwarf', Z 5,6,7,8,9, Cut/Bark Mature height - 3'x3', Growth - Med., Light - S-Psh, Soil - Med., Origin - SE US Compact version of above, though experience is proving that this may get slightly larger. Hydrangea quercifolia, 'Snow Flake', Z 5,6,7,8,9, Cut/Bark Mature height - 7'x7', Growth - Med., Light - S-Psh, Soil - Med., Origin - SE US.
