Hydrangea arborescens Golden Annabelle (Sevenbark)

An exciting new type of Hydrangea annabelle, this golden version has striking two tone variegated foliage in colours of gold and lime green giving interest long before the enormous lime green/creamy white flowers appear in globe shaped formations from July onwards.

An easy to grow, bushy plant growing to 120cm high and 100cm wide, Hydrangea arborescens Golden Annabelle has great potential for beds, borders or as a very colorful informal hedge.

Hydrangea Golden Annabelle is easy to grow in sun or partial shade, they prefer a rich moisture retaining soil that doesnt dry out too much in Summer, thinnner and lighter soils would benefit from a good amount of organic matter being well mixed in the hole at planting time and these glorious shrubs enjoy a good mulch being applied during Spring to get the best from them, this is especially the case for younger plants. Prune the old flower heads off in spring, reducing the plants back to a strong bud and removing any weak or crossing stems. We recommend adding Rootgrow when planting all Hydrangeas to give them the best start.
