Hydrangea luteo-venosa,
a deciduous shrub up to 1.5 meters tall, grows
on bright hills or low mountain slopes, with slender branches and
young leaves tinged red-purple. Leaves are alternate, with blades
measuring 3-5 cm and margins featuring sparse, prominent serrations.
Both surfaces are covered in hair on the veins and incredibly dense
on the back sides. Inflorescences measure 2- 7 cm in diameter; the
ornamental flowers are few, typically one to three. Some
inflorescences comprise decorative flowers only. The ornamental
flowers are white, 1.5- 2.5 cm in diameter, and occasionally have a
light yellow tinge. Hermaphrodite flowers are pale yellow-green,
about 8mm across, with pointed petal tips. Bloom time: June-July. |
