Oakleaf Hydrangea 'Alice'

Hydrangea quercifolia 'Alice' is a large, bushy hydrangea, known for its spectacular flowering, distinctive oak-shaped foliage, and four-season ornamental interest. This variety is characterized by its very large, upright, conical panicles, composed of abundant creamy-white flowers that sometimes take on a slight pink hue at the end of flowering. Its overall habit is broad, upright, and slightly spreading, with a silhouette wider than it is tall at maturity, ideal for large beds, specimen plantings, and naturalistic gardens. The deciduous dark green, deeply lobed foliage transforms into magnificent red, purple, and burgundy hues in autumn, greatly extending its decorative appeal. 'Alice' flowers on old wood, which requires moderate pruning. Highly valued for its hardiness and striking landscape effect, it is a reliable choice for large gardens.
