HOW TO MEASURE OUR TINCTURES:

Droppers: If a dropper were immersed in a tincture bottle and the bulb squeezed twice, the number of drops in the pipette for most given tinctures will be approximately 30 drops.
Note: These are only averages. More viscous (thicker) tinctures will produce fewer, and bigger, drops.

Hydrangea arborescens
Family
Saxifragaceae (Rockfoil Family)
Etymology
The genus name Hydrangea derives from the Greek hydro, "water," and angeion, "vessel." The common name seven barks refers to the fact that when the bark peels off, it does so in several layers of various colors.
Range of Appearance
Hydrangea is a Native American decidious shrub that can grow 5 to 10 feet tall. It grows in the wild along streams, hills, and woodlands and is a popular ornamental. The leaves are opposite, mostly ovate, pointed, and toothed. The numerous, small, beautiful flowers are borne on cymes and are usually white but sometimes pink or purple, depending on soil alkalinity. Most hydrangeas do best in rich, moist soil and prefer full sun, though they will tolerate partial shade.
