Hydrangea quercifolia

Hydrangea quercifolia or oak leaf hydrangea is a medium-sized deciduous hydrangea that stands out for its beautiful leaves up to 20 cm in size, which strongly resemble an enlarged leaf of an American oak and turn a beautiful red in autumn. The fairly wide cone-shaped flower plumes are also not to be sniffed at and first bloom ivory white to later turn pink. The oak leaf hydrangea first grows wide upright and in time also forms foothills, it likes a position in filtered sunlight, partial shade, to shade and grows well in any type of soil.
