A rounded shrub with its long lasting flower clusters, the Annabelle Hydrangea is an eye catching and beautiful addition to any garden or landscape. 

Grows best in average, medium moisture, well-drained soils in part shade. Tolerates full sun only if grown with consistent moisture. Blooms occur on new wood, so plants should be pruned back close to the ground in late winter to revitalize and to encourage new stem growth and best shape. 

Can adapt to a variety of soil conditions. Be cautious of drought, as the foliage tends to decline in dry conditions, and harsh winters, plants may need to be covered to ensure regrowth.
