About Mountain Hydrangeas
A member of the Hydrangeaceae family known as Hydrangea serrata, the mountain hydrangea is the least common type of bigleaf hydrangea. As the name suggests, they’re native to mountainous areas of Japan and Korea. While the flowers are similar to those of the lacecap hydrangea, they are smaller and have hardier blooms.
The mountain hydrangea can be grown in USDA hardiness zones 4 through 9, reaching a maximum size of no more than 4 feet high. Some stay even smaller, making them ideal for container planting around the patio or yard.
To find just the right mountain hydrangea for your planting area, narrow down your search by selecting specific features down the side of the page. Choices include USDA hardiness zone, flower color, bloom period, fall color, growth rate, sun exposure, and height and spread.
