Hydrangea quercifolia 'Munchkin'
Oak-leaved hydrangea
An exceptional U.S. National Arboretum introduction. Enjoy a profusion of large flower clusters, held against dark green, deeply lobed oak-like leaves. Robust blooms open white and age to pink, remaining upright even after heavy rain. Foliage turns brilliant mahogany in fall. Compact, dense habit is suited for smaller landscapes. Stunning in groups or as a hedge.
