Hydrangea quercifolia 'Pee Wee'
This compact deciduous shrub has magnificent foliage. The oakleaf shaped leaves emerge from woolly shoots a rich green in spring. Magnificent pyramidal 20 cm long clusters of creamy-white flowers in the summer months. The leaves in autumn turn burgundy, red and wine-purple, staying on the plant until the new leaves emerge in spring. Prefers semi-shade and good soil that does not get too dry.
