Oakleaf hydrangea is named after the shape of its deeply lobed leaves.  The large oak shape leaves are followed by long, conical flower heads from late spring to late summer.  The creamy white flowers turn a pinkish hue as the season changes.  The leaves have an oustanding fall color and when dried blooms, when left to dry on plant provides some winter interest.  Blooms should be removed prior to new spring growth and any major pruning should take place after the plant is done blooming.  When planted in full sun be sure to provide adequate moisture.
