Hydrangea quercifolia ‘Ice Crystal’

Hydrangea quercifolia ‘Ice Crystal’ is a compact oak-leaved hydrangea, ideal for smaller gardens and containers. From mid-summer to autumn it produces elegant conical clusters of white flowers, beautifully offset by deeply lobed foliage that turns rich red and purple in autumn.

This hardy, low-maintenance shrub makes an excellent choice for mixed borders, containers, cottage gardens, woodland areas, or as a striking specimen plant. More drought-tolerant than macrophylla hydrangeas once established, ‘Ice Crystal’ offers year-round interest with minimal effort.

July-September flowering. Grows best in sun or dappled shade in moist, well-drained soil. Height & spread: 1.2m x 1.2m (4′ x 4′).
