I find the oak leaf hydrangeas planted around homes in town are just as beautiful now as they are in their summer glory (6.03.07). And later in the winter when the storms have blown and we may be left with just bare branches I can find plenty of visual interest in their fascinating exfoliating bark.

The onset of summer also brings the blooms of the beautiful Oakleaf Hydrangea. Southern homes often frame the flowing shadows of their lawns with these majestic blossoming bushes.
