Description
Annabelle is a mounding shrub. In July, it produces huge (8–12″) round heads of pure white blooms that remain attractive into September and can be cut for fresh or dried arrangements.
Its scale and summer flowering make it a good choice for the mixed border. ‘Annabelle’ Hydrangea is most at home in partial sun and evenly moist but well-drained soil. The plant will excel in full sun but may require extra water to look its best. Because it flowers heavily on the current season’s growth (“new wood”), most gardeners cut the stems to the ground (3-6′) in late fall or early spring. New shoots emerge from the base in May and bloom in the summer.
