Hydrangea quercifolia ‘Ruby Slippers’(Oakleaf Hydrangea) ‘Ruby Slippers’ is a compact oakleaf hydrangea with large, upright flower panicles that provide changing color through the season. Blooms emerge white in late spring, quickly blush pink, and mature to a rich ruby red. Blooms on old wood so prune to shape in summer after flowering. Weak or damaged stems can be removed in early spring. Deep green, oak-shaped foliage adds texture throughout summer before turning shades of mahogany red in fall. As the plant matures, its stems develop exfoliating bark that reveals warm brown tones for added winter interest.
