Hydrangea arborescens ‘White Dome’ at Digging Dog
The name Hydrangea, means “water vessel,” given for its cup-shaped seed vessels.
A genus of diverse forms, Hydrangeas are commonly found throughout Asia, from the Himalayas to Taiwan and Japan, with the exception of two species, Hydrangea arborescens and Hydrangea quercifolia, which are native to North America.
Easily grown, this shrub’s lush deciduous leaves are best suited to loose, moist soil in the shade of tall trees or on the north side of the house. If, like us, you’ve tired of the commoner sort, these delicacies will be a welcome surprise. Further reading about Hydrangea:Hydrangeas for American Gardens by Michael A. Dirr Hydrangeas A Gardener’s Guide (Revised Edition) by Toni Lawson-Hall and Brian Rothera Hydrangea arborescens ‘White Dome’
Grounded by a tidy mass of sturdy stems that won’t flop, even after a downpour, and dark green serrated leaves, this elegant Hydrangea’s large, dome-shaped floral heads are wreathed in sterile, white blossoms.
Sharing the same hardiness and vigor as the species, which is an east coast native, ‘White Dome’s lavish lacecaps are borne on new wood, ensuring more flowers for colder climates. It brings lush, invigorating accents to a shrubby border, and the Victorian-esque blooms are ideal fresh or dried in arrangements. (PP#14,168)
Blooms July–September. Size: 5' high x 5' wide; hardy to zone 4. Hydrangea arborescens White Dome (s-0611) Each $11.00
