There are six main varieties of Pink-flowered Hydrangea produced in China: elliptic-leaved variant, glossy-leaved variant, acute-leaved variant, acuminate-leaved variant, glabrous variant, and cleft-leaved variant
Acuminate-leaved Pink-flowered Hydrangea has long ovate to lanceolate leaf blades, acuminate at the apex, cuneate at the base, and is 3.5-8 centimeters in length, with sharp and biserrate edges, and pubescent underneath along the leaf veins. Compound corymbs 10-14 cm in diameter, sometimes up to 18 cm, flowers pink. Produced in Henan, Shaanxi, Gansu, Hubei, Hunan, Jiangxi, Zhejiang, Anhui, Guizhou, Sichuan, Yunnan, Guangxi. Born on mountain slopes in open ground, in sparse mixed woods, in valleys or beside river gullies, at 950-4000 m. Anhui, Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi, Guizhou, Sichuan, Yunnan, Guangxi.
The leaf blade of Acute Leaf Pink Flower Hydrangea is small, elliptic or ovate, acute at the apex, broadly cuneate to rounded at the base, 2.5-4.5 centimeters long, sparsely biserrate at the margin, and pubescent underneath. Compound corymbs smaller, 2.5-4 cm in diam, flowers pink. Western Yunnan. Born in mixed woods or on grassy slopes, 2500-2700 m. ?
Light-leaved Pink-flowered Hydrangea (Saffron Hydrangea). This variety is taller, with oblong-lanceolate leaf blades, short acuminate at the apex, cuneate at the base, sharply biserrate at the margins, 5-10 cm long, wrinkled above, glabrous on both surfaces, glaucous below. Compound corymbs 4-8 cm in diameter, flowers pink, disk undeveloped. Produced in Shaanxi, Hubei, Shandong, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Anhui, Guizhou, Sichuan, Yunnan. Born on mountain slopes, in fields or under mixed woods, 700-3000 m. Guangdong, Guangxi, Guizhou, Yunnan.
The glabrous pink-flowered hydrangea leaf blade is ovate, ovate-oblong, or long elliptic, with an acute or short acuminate apex and a cuneate to rounded base, 3.5-9 centimeters long, with a sharp, biserrate margin, and glabrous on both surfaces. Compound corymbs glabrous, up to 12 cm in diameter, flowers pink. Anhui, Zhejiang, Sichuan, Yunnan. Born in stony gravelly places or forest understories or forest margins, 1600-1900 m. ?
Fractured-leaf pink-flowered hydrangea leaf blade ovate-oblong to oblong-lanceolate, apex short acuminate, base broadly cuneate to rounded, margin pinnatipartite, coarsely sharply biserrate, 6-9 cm long, pubescent below. Compound corymbs 5-7 cm across, flowers pink. Produced in Sichuan and Yunnan. Born in alpine grassland thickets, 3200-4000 m. Sichuan, Yunnan. The type was taken from Wisi, Yunnan.
The leaf blade of elliptic-leaved pink-flowered hydrangea is small, broadly ovate or elliptic, with a rounded or slightly acute apex, 2-4 cm long, with rounded, obtuse, biserrate margins, glabrous on both surfaces, glaucous below. Compound corymbs 7-12 cm in diameter, flowers white. Produced in Sichuan and Yunnan. Born on mountain slopes near forests, on rocky slopes, or in ravines; 2500-3800 m. Sichuan, Yunnan. The type was taken from Baoxing, Sichuan. Colorful Japanese hydrangea Spiraeajaponica L. f.cv. Shibori. White, pink, and deep rose flowers bloom simultaneously on the same plant. The flowering period is long, lasting from early summer until frost. The flower color of cuttings varies depending on where the spike is taken on the plant. Considered the best of the Japanese hydrangeas.
