Hydrangea Pink Annabelle
H. arborescens Pink Annabelle is a glorious, rosy-coloured variety, famous for its unbelievably large heads, held impossibly high on firm stalks. Its compact form makes it wonderful as a specimen in a border, planted in multiples to form a hedge, or even for impact when planted in a container.
- Pot size: 5 L
- Height and Spread: 100cm x 150cm (3ft - 4ft 11in) in 2 - 5 years

In a botanical tour de force, as unlikely as bumble bees flying, the huge flowering heads of Annabelle hydrangeas are held aloft without dropping (as long as they are not thirsty). The visual effect produces a magical display which adds structure to border schemes or dynamic interest as specimen planting.
