Hydrangea paniculata "Greenspire"

This large, beautiful shrub is blooming in our front yard. The flower heads are very showy and they can be left on for winter interest. There is a native hydrangea in our area and it too has bright white flowers. But like most native plants, it is not as showy as the cultivars. Even though not a native, this shrub does blend beautifully with the native grasses that are starting to bloom and native cone flowers that are still blooming.
