Description
Schizophragma corylifolium, native to China, is a superb suckering bush, related to Hydrangeas, whose adventitious roots allow it to cling to many supports. Standing at a height of 4 m, it has dense and beautiful, intense green foliage and clusters of sterile flowers with fine cream bracts in summer contrasting beautifully with the green foliage!
Schizophragma corylifolium is a suckering bush native to China, belonging to the Hydrangea family. It forms a woody climber equipped with adventitious roots, reaching a height of 3 or 4 m (10 or 13ft). Its dense and bushy, grey-brown branches are striped in the lengthwise direction and slightly hairy when young. It has deciduous foliage, composed of intense green, heart-shaped leaves, slightly toothed, with a long petiole of 2 to 10 cm (1 to 4in). From May to July, it displays graceful flowering in the form of flat corymbs measuring 8 to 17 cm (3 to 7in) in diameter, composed of small white sterile flowers adorned with fine, pointed cream bracts.
This Schizophragma is a robust and hardy climbing plant, easy to grow, capable of climbing and conquering many supports, thanks to its adventitious roots. Highly decorative with its beautiful intense green foliage superbly contrasting with its cream inflorescences, it is an essential climbing plant for a natural garden, a garden in green and white tones, or a romantic or wild garden. Appreciating semi-shaded positions, it will be ideal for embellishing and concealing a wall, but it can also climb into a tree. Not invasive at all, it will adapt its growth to the size of the support. It can be associated with climbing Roses, Clematis, other climbing Hydrangeas, as well as Hops or a climbing Fuchsia.

Planting and care
Schizophragma corylifolium is an easy-to-grow and low-maintenance plant which appreciates partially shaded to shaded locations, possibly sunny early in the morning or late in the afternoon. It likes humus-rich, consistently moist to wet, well-drained soils. Planting can be done in spring or autumn. Make sure to plant at least 60 cm (24in) away from the support it will climb on, and guide its stems by attaching them until they become rigid. Propagation can be done by cuttings in June, or by semi-hardwood cuttings in August. Pruning can be done in spring, by pruning the branches to the desired height.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
