Description
Schizophragma hydrangeoides 'Moonlight' is a cultivar of climbing false Hydrangea that differs from the species by its more compact habit and its silver-green foliage that will brighten up dark and neglected places. It is attractive with its summer flowering in creamy-white, with delicate lace-like inflorescences and white bracts of sterile flowers. Equipped with aerial roots, it firmly clings to its support, tree or wall, reaching a height of up to 4m (13ft). It should be grown in shade or partial shade.
Schizophragma hydrangeoides 'Moonlight' belongs to the Hydrangeaceae family. These climbing plants, closely related to climbing Hydrangeas, are native to wooded and humid regions of Asia, China, the Himalayas, Japan, and Korea. This cultivar, smaller than the species, will reach an average height of 4m (13ft) and spread over 2m (7ft 6in). Except for young plants under 3 years old, Schizophragma attaches itself with climbing roots, just like ivy. In June-July, a long flowering period of at least 3 weeks occurs at the terminal part of the stems. The inflorescences are 20cm (7.9in) in diameter, airy, and composed of small clusters of tiny creamy-white fertile flowers, surrounded by sterile flowers with large white bracts that turn pink at the end of flowering. The foliage is deciduous, green with silver reflections, which gives this cultivar its charm. The leaves are large, 10 to 20cm (3.9 - 7.9in) long, opposite, heart-shaped, with finely dentate margins. It is very hardy and can withstand temperatures as low as -20°C (-4 °F).
Schizophragma hydrangeoides 'Moonlight' does not like soils that are too dry, too poor, or limestone. If necessary, add peat to maintain moisture (peat should never completely dry out, or it will be impossible to rehydrate) and lower the pH of your soil. It has a very decorative effect on a north-facing wall or on the trunk of a small mature tree. While it prefers a shaded and protected location, it needs light to flower properly, with morning sun being ideal. This climber can also run along the ground, like ivy, but it will brighten up neglected and dark areas of the garden.

Planting and care
Schizophragma 'Moonlight' does not like dry and poor soils, nor limestone. If necessary, add turf to maintain freshness (the turf should never completely dry out, otherwise it will be impossible to rehydrate) and reduce the pH of your too limestone soil. Plant it in autumn or spring. Dig a hole at least 50cm (19.7in) deep, in which you will mix turf and crushed horn with the original soil. A soil rich in humus, clayey, moist but well-drained is ideal. The most suitable exposure is partial shade. However, you can place them in the sun, but shelter the base from direct rays. Avoid excessively hot areas and the setting sun. Regular fertilizer applications will benefit this hungry plant. Similarly, staking is necessary until the aerial roots are well established. Light pruning should be done at the end of winter to remove faded flowers from the previous season, to avoid injuries during severe cold. Optionally, remove unruly or tangled stems in autumn.

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:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
