Hydrangea quercifolia Alice, a stunning cultivar of the oakleaf hydrangea, captivates with its bold presence and seasonal charm. Forming a lush, rounded silhouette in the landscape, it bursts into bloom with enormous, conical clusters of pure white flowers—panicles. As the season matures, these blossoms gracefully age to soft shades of pink, adding depth and changing character to the garden. Ideal as a specimen plant, in mixed borders, or naturalized in woodland gardens.
