Hydrangea arborescens 'Annabelle'

Description How to Grow More Info Delivery Reviews

Hydrangea arborescens 'Annabelle' is distinct from most other types of hydrangeas as it has white flowerheads, compared to the more usual pinks and blues. It does however share all the same positive elements, with large papery flowerheads that last until autumn, and it is very easy to maintain and can be planted in garden borders or large containers. It was awarded an Award of Garden Merit from the Royal Horticultural Society and is a great specimen for a range of garden designs including modern minimalist gardens, woodland gardens and cottage gardens. The flowerheads can be dried and used in dried flower arrangements. Height and spread: 250cm (98").

Caution: irritant, harmful if eaten. When growing Hydrangea arborescens, choose a sunny or semi shaded spot that is sheltered from cold winter winds. Plant Hydrangeas in borders in rich moist, non alkaline, well drained soil. Add plenty of well rotted manure to improve heavy clay or light sandy soils.

Water Hydrangea plants regularly until fully established. Leave faded hydrangea flower heads in place until new buds swell the following spring. These will help protect the delicate buds from frost damage. Prune stems in spring, removing any rubbing, damaged or diseased stems and reducing stems to maintain a permanent woody framework. In spring, apply a mulch of well rotted manure or garden compost to the base of the plant.
