Everwilde Farms - 1 lb Wild Hydrangea Native Wildflower Seeds - Gold Vault Bulk Seed Packet

Hydrangea lovers will enjoy trying this wild variety. The large flower clusters turn from pale green to white as the blooms mature, and it is hard to believe that this species was not bred for these characteristics. Though most species of hydrangeas originally come from Asia, several, including this one, are native to North America; this hydrangea survives cold weather better than almost any other available species. This plant also has the common name "sevenbark" because of the distinctive peeling of the bark to reveal the layers beneath. The name "hydrangea" comes from a Greek phrase meaning "water vessel," possibly because of the plant's constant need for water.
