Hydrangea quercifolia ‘Snowflake’ (S-0124)
Each 15.75
It was a fortuitous moment when Hydrangea enthusiast Eddie Aldridge and his father happened upon this sumptuous Hydrangea in the woodlands of Jefferson County, Alabama. Premiering enormous, 15 in. long white panicles that can extend upward, outward or pendulously, the coarse textured, leathery anchor of large, Oak-like foliage burnishes deep burgundy come fall and stays intact well into December. The distinctive, 2-toned double-petaled effect is created when numerous tiered sepals initially open white, while below the older ones develop dark dusty pink shades with age. ‘Snowflake’s blossoms unfurl a little later and seem to last longer than the single-flowering quercifolia plus Michael Dirr considers them to be the most beautiful of the sterile-blooming cultivars.
