Semmes Beauty Oakleaf Hydrangea – 3 Gallon Pot

With enormous flower clusters up to 14 inches long, ‘Semmes Beauty’ is an outstanding Oakleaf Hydrangea selected for its vigor and tolerance of the heat and humidity in the South. This magnificent beauty is a 4-season color factory. Large, oak-shaped, dark green leaves emerge in early spring followed by elongated, showy clusters of four-petaled ivory color flowers that turn to a rose-pink in late summer and fall. But the color show doesn’t stop there. Striking shades of crimson and bronze purple foliage light up the fall garden. The flowers dry to a soft tan color and persist through the winter, contrasting nicely with the exfoliating copper-brown, cinnamon and tan bark. The cut flowers are great for use in fresh or dried flower arrangements.
