Hydrangea arborescens ‘Annabelle’
Hydrangea arborescens Annabelle is a bushy shrub characterised by its numerous branches adorned with magnificent spherical white clusters. These spherical inflorescences reach impressive dimensions, sometimes exceeding 20 centimetres in diameter. They are made up of a myriad of sterile flowers of immaculate white surrounding a few rare fertile flowers. This floral profusion gives Hydrangea arborescens ‘Annabelle’ a decorative appearance and a singular beauty at the height of summer.
Hardiness: Very good hardiness, down to -25 °C.
Use and interest: This hydrangea is a very resistant American creation. It is, as they say, “the hydrangea variety for everyone”. It tolerates all soils and even chalky soils. Nutrient-rich soil will allow you to achieve generous flowering with large flower heads. You can cut it back very short each year without compromising the new flowering.
