List

Hydrangea hydrangeoides, the Japanese hydrangea vine, is a species of flowering plant in the family Hydrangeaceae, native to Ulleungdo Island of South Korea, Japan, and the southern Kuril Islands.[1]
Etymology
The specific epithet hydrangeoides means "resembling Hydrangea" or "like a Hydrangea".[2][3] This may appear strange considering the current position of this taxon within the genus Hydrangea. However, it was first described as a member of the genus Schizophragma[1] and the specific epithet was chosen to express a morphological similarity to the previously separate genus Hydrangea.
Horticulture
Under its synonym Schizophragma hydrangeoides its cultivars 'Roseum' and 'Moonlight' have gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.[4][5]
In cultivation this species is slow to establish.[3]
