Snowcicle Oakleaf Hydrangea

Experience the timeless beauty of Snowcicle Oakleaf Hydrangea PP#33072 (Hydrangea quercifolia 'Snowcicle') —a magnificent flowering shrub that brings four-season appeal to any landscape. This exceptional Oakleaf Hydrangea is known for its large, elongated panicles of creamy white blooms, which gracefully age to soft pink, then deepen to rich rose hues as summer progresses.

Unlike other varieties, Snowcicle features densely packed, double florets, creating a layered, full-bodied floral display that lasts well into fall. Beyond its spectacular flowers, Snowcicle delivers striking Oakleaf Hydrangea autumn foliage, with deep burgundy and fiery red leaves, adding a dramatic touch to the fall garden.

In winter, its peeling cinnamon-brown bark provides texture and visual interest, ensuring beauty year-round. This low-maintenance, drought-tolerant shrub thrives in full sun to partial shade, making it an excellent choice for woodland gardens, mixed borders, and foundation plantings.
