Hydrangea quercifolia 'Ice Crystal' (oak leaf hydrangea) is a deciduous to semi evergreen shrub with large green leaves and large panicles of white flowers. Hydrangea quercifolia 'Ice Crystal' has large, dramatically cut, leaves and large, upright facing, panicles of white flowers that start blooming in early summer and persist until fall. Hydrangea quercifolia 'Ice Crystal' has rich reddish burgundy fall color and the old flowers also pick up rose tones. Hydrangea quercifolia 'Ice Crystal' is a stunning addition to most any garden and is great planted in mass or as a specimen in your woodland garden or even in a sunny spot. As with all hydrangeas, Hydrangea quercifolia 'Ice Crystal' prefers rich, moisture retentive soils. Thanks to Tony Avent of Plant Delights Nursery for use of his photo of mature plant.
