Sike's Dwarf Oakleaf Hydrangea is a compact deciduous shrub with a mounded habit, and smaller oak-like leaves that turns shades of bronze, maroon, and purple in fall. Its conical panicles of sterile flowers open white bloom in summer and gradually fade to pink then brown. Best bloom in part sun and rich, moist well-drained soils.
Hydrangea quercifolia is one of the species of hydrangea that acts as a pollinizer, attracting a large number of bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. Songbirds eat the seeds and use the plant to nest.
