What are the garden uses for Hydrangea quercifolia Snowflake in NZ?

Hydrangea quercifolia Snowflake is a much-loved shrub in NZ gardens. It is most commonly grown as specimen, used as an informal hedge, added to a mixed planting, or planted as a backdrop for smaller plants. It is a great complement to a modern or cottage garden, bringing both colour and elegance to a space. It is the gorgeous foliage and beautiful flowers of this plant that makes Hydrangea quercifolia Snowflake an excellent choice for a NZ garden.

What does the quercifolia Snowflake Hydrangea need to grow well?

The quercifolia Snowflake Hydrangea grows best when positioned in full sun or partial shade on a well-drained soil that is slightly acidic. It is tolerant of frost, cool climates, coastal environments, and humid climates. Wind protection is important to ensure branches are not snapped and this will also result in a better formed plant that will flower more prolifically.

How to the prune Hydrangea quercifolia Snowflake

Hydrangea quercifolia Snowflake is pruned each winter to contain growth and encourage fresh, new growth that will bear flowers. The Plant Company recommends they are pruned back to a low crown which has short stems (about 10 cm long) with at least two buds on each stem remaining. Any dead stems should also be removed at this time, along with stems that are criss-crossing or show disease. Young plants will generally be left with five stems whereas older plants can have 10-20 stems remaining. These can be thinned back to 15 if desired which will help produce bigger flower heads. Longer stems can be left on younger plants while they are establishing. In general, the harder the plant is pruned back, the more contained it will grow the next season. Flowering can be affected with hard pruning but that is more likely to cause delayed flowering only. A mistake often made with pruning the Hydrangea quercifolia Snowflake variety is to not prune the plants hard enough. This error results in a woodier plant and a much larger plant that can be difficult to contain.
