Snow Queen® Oakleaf Hydrangea

Plant in moist, well-drained, acidic soil enriched with organic matter. Space 6–8 feet apart. Water thoroughly after planting and mulch 2–3 inches deep.

Water consistently, especially during the first season and dry periods. Oakleaf hydrangea blooms on old wood- prune only lightly immediately after flowering to remove spent blooms, and avoid any heavy pruning in fall or early spring which removes next year's flower buds. Fertilize lightly in spring with an acid fertilizer. The large white flower panicles, attractive peeling bark, and brilliant fall foliage color make this a superb four-season native shrub. Largely pest-free.
