Erect shrub, 4-10 ft.: lvs. long-petioled, ovate, acute or acuminate, rounded or cordate at the base, serrate, green and glabrous on both sides or somewhat pubescent or glaucous beneath, 3-6 in. long: cymes 2-5 in. broad, with none or few sterile fls.

Closely allied to the preceding species, but habit more open and spreading: lvs. with coarsely toothed or nearly entire lobes, pilose on the veins beneath or nearly glabrous, 2-5 in. long; petiole with shallow groove and small, usually stalked glands: cymes with shorter peduncles; stamens somewhat shorter.

Cultivars

The cultivar 'Annabelle' is the best known of this species. It is noted for having very large inflorescens (flower heads)that emerge green turn white and then age to green. The blooms are so large and heavy they often flop to the ground after a rain.
The cultivar ‘Grandiflora’ has flowers that resemble snowballs, similar to Viburnum plicatum. The blooms are not as large as 'Annabelle' and are typically more irregular or lumpy.
The cultivar ‘Hayes Starburst’ is a small, weeaked stemed plant with attractive, fully doubled tepals (sterile flowers).
The cultivar ‘NCAH1’ (syn INVINCIBELLE^TM Spirit) is the first 'Annabelle' type hydrangea with bright pink flowers. Like the species it is cold hardy, heat tolerant and relaible flowering. The mature stems are stronger than 'Annabelle' and are less likely to flop. This cultivar is also unique in that it continues to produce new flowers after the initial bloom.
