Just as The Great Gatsby is a classic of American literature, H.<br />
quercifolia is a classic native plant. Long prized by knowledgeable<br />
gardeners, we think it’s time to bring this intriguing North American<br />
plant to a wider market. With that in mind, we are pleased to offer three<br />
superior new varieties that will introduce all gardeners to the charm of<br />
oakleaf hydrangeas. Propagation prohibited without a license. Patent/<br />

GATsBy’s GAl TM (H. q. ‘Brenhill’, ppaf, cbraf)<br />
A little smaller than other H. quercifolia, but with impressively large flowers,<br />
and lots of them. Full panicles of pure white blooms are held upright about the foliage.<br />
The flowers are quite large relative to the plant’s compact size, and make this plant a<br />
great choice for smaller gardens. Developed by Douglas and Brenda Hill of Cleveland,<br />
Alabama. USDA 5, AHS 9, 5-6’, gr 1 Item #: 40934 - 4” • 40935 - Quick Turn<br />
GATsBy’s moon TM<br />
(H. q. ‘Brother Edward’, ppaf, cbraf)<br />
This is a distinctive, showy take on our beloved native oakleaf hydrangea.<br />
Doubled florets are similar to those of ‘Harmony’, but are more weather-resistant.<br />
The tightly packed, pure white florets create very full, conical panicles with a unique<br />
‘quilted’ effect. As the bloom ages, it turns a nice shade of green that lasts through<br />
most of the summer. USDA 5, AHS 9, 6-10’ gr 1<br />
Item #: 40594 - 4” • 40595 - Quick Turn<br />
GATsBy’s sTAr TM (H. q. ‘Doughill’, ppaf, cbraf)<br />
It’s got star power! Doubled blooms are similar to that of ‘Snowflake’, but the<br />
individual petals are pointed instead of rounded. The result is a beautiful, lacy panicle –<br />
and a very showy plant. Developed by Douglas and Brenda Hill of Cleveland, Alabama.<br />
