Oakleaf Hydrangea

The Oakleaf Hydrangea can grow up to 10 feet tall and is characterized by white, tapering blossoms that are up to 10 inches long. The weight of these blossoms can cause the stems to droop. The leaves are shaped like those of an oak tree, hence the name of this plant. On May 25, 1999, the governor of Alabama signed a proclamation making the Oakleaf Hydrangea the state wild flower.Posted by Picasa
