Gatsby Glow Ball® Oakleaf Hydrangea (Hydrangea quercifolia 'NCHQ1') - QT

If you love oakleaf hydrangeas but want something more compact and polished, Gatsby Glow Ball® is the one to plant. This rounded, tidy shrub blooms in summer with large, pure white flower heads that gradually take on a fresh glowing green hue. In fall, the foliage turns brilliant shades of burgundy and wine-red, giving you another burst of color before winter. Smaller than many oakleaf hydrangeas, Gatsby Glow Ball® fits perfectly into foundation plantings, mixed borders, or even decorative containers. Its refined habit means it looks neat without constant pruning. The bold, oak-shaped leaves provide texture all summer, while the blooms and foliage keep the color show going for months. Easy to grow, hardy in Zones 5–9, and tolerant of a range of soils, this is a hydrangea that delivers beauty from summer through fall with very little fuss.
