Schizophragma hydrangeoides, commonly called Japanese hydrangea vine, is a deciduous, woody-stemmed, climbing vine which is valued for its toothed, heart-shaped, deep green leaves (3-5" long) and large, flat-topped, lace cap hydrangea-like clusters (8-10" across) of white flowers which bloom in early summer. Foliage turns yellow in fall. Attaches to and grows up flat vertical surfaces such as masonry walls by stem-borne adhesive rootlets. Reddish-brown stems provide some interest in winter.
'Moonlight' is valued for its silvery, blue-green, heart-shaped leaves (3-5" across) and large, flat-topped, lace cap hydrangea-like clusters (8-10" across) of creamy white flowers which bloom for 6 to 8 weeks in summer.
