Hydrangea arborescens 'Strong Annabelle' produces giant globes of pure white flowers which are held on extremely strong stems.

The huge flower heads appear from midsummer through until autumn and make superb cut flowers with impressive longevity. This Sevenbark variety is ideal for cottage gardens, woodland gardens, borders or even large patio containers. Height and spread: 1.5m (5').

Imagine, the perfect plant to attract attention to your garden, and deserving pride of place where it can shine throughout the year. This addition to the popular 'Annabelle' series of hydrangeas has the same dramatic flowerheads but with an added bonus - gorgeous, colour-changing, pink blossom. As the buds emerge the backs of the petals are a rich shade of raspberry, so when young, the overall impression is of quite a strong pink. Then, as the buds open, they reveal a lighter upper surface, giving an overall softer shade when the flowers have opened fully. Over the course of the summer the colour becomes even paler, and eventually the big heads take on a subtle, greenish tone. The show doesn't stop there though as after the flowers have faded and fallen, a skeleton of fine filigree remains to catch the frost and sparkle in the low winter sunshine - adding to its year-round interest. Really easy to grow and a great plant for a newbie gardener, 'Sweet Annabelle' blooms on new wood, unlike older varieties which only bloom on the old, so you'll continue to bloom year on year, all throughout the summer, regardless of pruning or extreme weather. An invaluable addition to the mixed or shrub border - as well as a large patio pot - this is a hydrangea that you don't want to be without. Supplied as an established plant in a 3L pot.

In dry weather, if your plant wilts, soak the roots with a hose and the plant will usually recover, and in any case, water regularly until plants are fully established.Care GuidePlanting Advice for Hydrangea Candybelle Bubblegum:- Really low maintenance, Candybelle prefers compost-enriched soil that stays moist. It can be planted in sun or light shade.- Shrub roots generally tend to spread out rather than down, so dig a planting hole 3 x wider than the roots of the shrub you're planting and mix some well-rotted compost or manure with the soil from the hole and use this to re-fill one the shrub is in place.- We've found that a square hole is better than a round one as the new roots, once they reach the edges tend to grow in a circle round the circumference of the hole whereas when they reach the corners of a square hole, they find it easier to grow through.- Before planting soak container-grown shrubs thoroughly and allow to drain.- Remove the plant from its pot and tease out a few of the roots.- Add Mycorrhizal fungi to the roots when planting to help plants establish quicker.- Place your shrub in the hole at the same level at the pot.- Refill the hole with the earth removed (backfilling) and firm in the soil with your heel, avoiding the root ball, then water well.- Mulch around the base of the plant with a collar, compost, gravel, bark etc.- If you're planting into pots, place some old rocks, stones or gravel in the bottom of the pot for drainage and ballast. Use the best compost you can buy and some sand or grit for drainage.Care Advice for your hydrangea:- Feed in spring to encourage flowering, our Hydrangea feed is ideal.- Keep well-watered through the year.Pruning Advice for Hydrangea arborescens:- As this hydrangea flowers on new wood, you can leave the faded hydrangea flower heads in place until the new buds begin to swell in spring this also protects the new growth from frost damage.- Just cut back the stems to a strong pair of buds. Remove any branches that are damaged or dead as well as any that are misplaced.- After pruning hydrangeas, apply a mulch of well-rotted manure or compost around the base of the plant.- Once established, you can remove up to a third of the shoots to the base of the plant to encourage new stems.Planting Time:February - NovemberFlowering Time:July - SeptemberAbout You GardenEstablished for over 50 years, our award winning trusted plant supplier are based in South Lincolnshire.

Impress your friends and neighbours by adding this unusual lime-green flowered hydrangea into your summer planting schemes. Full of designer style, Hydrangea 'Lime Rickey' is one of those shrubs that no garden should be without - the large, domed flowerheads of palest green cover this trendy, must-have shrub all through summer, creating a stunning contrast to its luxurious, dark green leaves. Transitioning from fresh lime-green in midsummer to white as the season progresses, the long-lasting blooms make fabulous cut flowers in both fresh and dried arrangements and are also amazing when left on the plants over winter, where their skeletal forms create beautiful architectural shapes when covered in frost. Also known as the smooth hydrangea, wild hydrangea, or sevenbark, 'Lime Rickey' is a cool-coloured specimen plant which creates a striking contrast to rich purples or fiery reds. Easy-to-grow this hydrangea is happy in sun or partial shade and makes a particularly striking plant for a container - either on its own or with other perennials such as salvias. Supplied as an established plant in a 3L pot.
