My new, tiny oakleaf gave me a couple of brown leaves, and a couple of colorful ones. The one that's a year older is still green! So much for microclimates! I can't wait until they get bigger.

They do look stunning in the autumn, and since I'm more into leaves, texture and shape than flowers, I'm looking forward to that.

I can see why you'd be a bit peeved if yours wasn't showing these colours - I'd feel the same. We're hoping to get hold of a hydrangea for our shade beds but I've never seen it in an oakleaf before. I shall chase one up - they look great. Delicious hydrangea. I can see why you’d be a bit peeved if yours wasn’t showing these colours – I’d feel the same.

Maybe you could try netting it so if the deer eat it at least they'll be doing their flossing. The deer-food I gave you is a hydrangea macrophylla or “big-leaf” hydrangea, specifically a mophead.

I never had a chance to enjoy it b/c --- as I think I told you ---- the deer ate it the first night it was in the ground. Yummy! they said. Is this the kind of hydrangea you gave me?
