Overview
Hydrangea arborescens 'Pink Annabelle'® is a deciduous shrub grown for its generous, rounded heads of soft to rich pink flowers that brighten the garden from summer into early autumn. As a selection of the classic Annabelle hydrangea, it flowers on new season's growth, providing reliable blooms each year even after a hard winter or spring pruning. Its naturally rounded habit makes it an excellent choice for mixed borders, cottage gardens and large patio containers. Sturdy stems carry the impressive flower heads well, while the blooms are equally attractive fresh or dried for indoor arrangements.
Why We Love It
'Pink Annabelle' brings all the dependable flowering performance of the traditional white Annabelle with beautiful pink blooms that provide colour over many weeks. It is equally effective as an individual specimen shrub or planted in groups for a bold summer display.
