'Annabelle' |
Hydrangea
'Invincibelle Spirit' |
|
Annabelle is
the best known variety of Hydrangea arborescens. Annabelle is a stunning
white hydrangea, often producing heads over 10" in diameter. Unlike the
better known blue and pink hydrangeas (macrophyllas), Annabelle blooms
every year even after severe pruning or intensely cold winters. The
huge, white "drumstick" blooms appear in profusion without fail. Some
people plant 'Annabelle' as a hedge since it can be cut back severely in
the winter for a tidy effect. |
This Proven Winner
is the pink flowering form of Annabelle. It is a rebloomer from
summer to frost. Pink Mophead makes an excellent cut flower. Grows
3-4’ tall. For each Invincibelle® Spirit sold, $1.00 will be sent to
the Breast Cancer Research Foundation®.
