Hydrangea 



NO class of shrubs is better known than the Hydrangeas, because they include some of the most 

 showy flowering plants that are found in cultivation. They transplant easily, have no insect 

 enemies, and, with the exception of the Hortensis varieties, are reliably hardy. A crowning feature 

 is that they bloom during the comparatively flowerless months of July to September. 



Hydrangea arborescens. (S). June and July. 

 A bushy plant from our native woods, with corymbs 

 of white flowers. It is the most hardy of Hydrangeas 

 and particularly desirable for planting in shady

July to September there is no shrub more showy 

 than this favorite Hydrangea, whose branches are 

 bent beneath the weight of huge white flower clus- 

 ters. As the season advances, the flower panicles 

 change to tints of pink and finally to bronze. Al- 

 ways dependable.

This is the single-flowering Hydrangea, listed above 

 as H. paniculata. The large-flowering variety, known as 

 the Great Panicled Hydrangea, is becoming so common 

 now that many planters prefer this single-flowering sort. 

 It is certainly a very handsome shrub that deserves more 

 general appreciation.

The flowers and foliage are the same as the well- 

 known Hydrangea. These plants have been trained 

 up to one single stalk, giving them the appearance 

 of a small tree. Splendid for formal effects.
