Dichroa versicolor, commonly known as the Evergreen Hydrangea, is a striking ornamental shrub valued for its year-round foliage and unique seasonal display. It forms a lush, evergreen framework of leathery green leaves that provide consistent structure and colour in the garden.
In warmer months, it produces delicate lacecap-style flowers in shades of blue to pink depending on soil conditions, followed by its most distinctive feature—clusters of metallic blue berries that persist into cooler seasons. This combination of flowers and ornamental fruit makes it a standout feature shrub for sheltered, shaded, or woodland-style gardens.
