Summer Garden Favourite
The attached photo taken in early January shows a beautiful display of white hydrangea blooms. This variety is called HYDRANGEA QUERCIFOLIA PEEWEE. The flowers are different to the traditional mop head types, because peewee blooms hang like a bunch of grapes, and when planted on mass they make a stunning feature. This variety performs very well, in sun or shade, and the foliage makes a beautiful display of autumn colours in the autumn. Peewee is not a big growing variety, maturing at around 75cm, so great for any size garden. Prune it in the middle of winter by cutting the framework back to a nice round ball.
HYDRANGEA PEEWEE is personally one of my favourite shrubs, because its so reliable for the modern garden with its great floral display and overall garden performance.
