Hydrangea quercifolia 'Ruby Slippers'

A profusion of exceptionally large blooms in summer are showcased against dark green, deeply lobed oak-like leaves. Flowers open white, quickly age to deep pink and are robust, remaining upright even after heavy rains. Foliage turns brilliant mahogany in fall. Compact form is perfect for small landscapes. Ideal for mass planting, hedge or mixed border. A U.S. National Arboretum introduction.
