Hydrangea arborescens 'Annabelle'

Hydrangea-Snowball

An ever-popular hydrangea that people ask for by name. Large, snowball-shaped flowers that vary in size from 6-12" across are apple green when they open, turning pure white. Aged, jade green flowers keep their color until frost. Blooms reliably on new wood every year. Great for hedging, naturalizing and cut flower gardens.
