Description
Hydrangea arborecens Bella Anna is a variety from 2012. Very close to the variety Invincibelle, Bella Anna has a habit with better support (slightly more rigid) and a more sustained flowering.
This compact habit variety measures 1.2m (4ft) in height and 1m (3ft) in width. It is particularly well adapted to pot cultivation but integrates beautifully into sunny flower beds. In flower from June, it blooms continuously until autumn. Its 15 to 20cm (6 to 8in) diameter flower-balls are magenta pink and remain very intense until autumn. They are carried on stiff stems that do not bend under the weight of the flowers, even when wet. This variety is highly appreciated in the design of both fresh and dry bouquets.
Originating from North America, Hydrangea arborescens are very hardy. They do not fear late spring frosts and tolerate heat as well as short dry spells better than their Asian cousins. They can be grown in limestone soil.
Plant Bella Anna in the sun or semi-shade, in light, rich and moist soil. Combine it in a sunny flower bed with Oenothera lindheimeri 'Siskyou Pink', Stachys byzantina, and Achillea millefolium 'Lilac Beauty', and mix in a few grasses (miscanthus or panicum) to lighten and contrast the scene.

Planting and care
Plant in the sun or light shade, in humus-bearing, slightly fertile soil. Ensure the soil is deeply worked. A good basic fertiliser (horn or dehydrated blood) will promote the recovery of your plant and feed it without risk of burning. The plant is perpetual, so you can cut the faded flowers regularly in summer. At the end of the summer, leave the dry umbels on the plant as they will protect the terminal shoots in winter. Remove the dry flowers at the end of February or at the first sign of warm weather.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
