Hydrangea quercifolia 'Pee Wee'

Pee Wee oakleaf hydrangea

Oakleaf hydrangea is the envy of northerners, since it is hardy only to Zone 5. Flowers are a combination of both sterile and fertile petals, lending a feathery and light appearance to the bloom. It is valued all the more for its striking red and purple fall foliage. 'Pee Wee' is a compact, rounded cultivar that stays short, ideal for placement as a foundation plant near windows.
