A page for wildflower and hiking enthusiast. A lot of my pictures, both wildflowers and scenery, come from the beautiful Tennessee State Parks. I use the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center for my description of native plants. All non-native plants will use someone else for the description. The best way to follow this blog is to enter your e-mail address below. You will receive an e-mail that looks just like the post with all the pictures.

Wild hydrangea, Sevenbark (Hydrangea arborescens L.)
Hydrangeaceae (Hydrangea Family)
USDA Native Status: Native to U.S.
Small, mound-shaped, densely multi-stemmed shrub, 3-6 ft. tall, wild hydragea is often broader than high at maturity. The flat-topped clusters of delicate, greenish-white flowers are the deciduous shrub’s main landscape feature. Some flowers are so heavy as to weigh the stem to the ground. Fall foliage is insignificant.
Photographic Location: Standing Stone State Park
