Hydrangeas are beloved for their tidy panicle flowers--but don't sleep on their leaves. When this dwarf shrub emerges in spring, our Little Honey Hydrangea features striking yellow leaves in oak-like shapes. Attractive white flowers decorate Little Honey in late spring, but this shrub is really all about the foliage. Its forsythia yellow coloring changes to a chartreuse in the warmer summer months. Little Honey late displays blazing red, orange and maroon color in fall, and boasts attractive bark for wintertime interest.

A compact selection compared to other oakleaf species, Little Honey is perfect for smaller spaces. Choose a location with dappled sun or afternoon shade to avoid burning the chartreuse and yellow leaves. Hydrangea quercifolia 'Little Honey'
