Hydrangea

Hydrangea consists of mostly shrubs with a few small trees and climbing plants. They're noted for their rounded or flattened clusters of flowers, which range from large, showy blooms to smaller fertile ones. Typically found in woodland settings, hydrangea thrives in moist, well-drained soil, exploiting shaded areas for optimal growth. The plant's alternatively arranged leaves often add to its aesthetic appeal.
