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 59, and tolerant of a range of soils, this is a hydrangea that delivers beauty from summer through fall with very little fuss.
