Hydrangea: Romantic Blooms for Summer
Hydrangeas offer the garden a large summer boost in bloom, but many hydrangea varieties are not consistent in color or tend to flop over under the hefty blooms. We hold a preference for Annabelle for her strength of stem, beauty, and profuse blooms.
We’ve even discovered Annabelle hydrangeas flowering abundantly in Bayeux, France. How can we not think of romantic France when stumbling upon the sight of these beauties flourishing so readily?
