Gardeners who grow Smooth Hydrangea almost always grow the form called ‘Annabelle’, or one much like it. That selection is a beauty, with big white flowers in huge, rounded bunches the size of cantaloupes. The problem is, those big white flowers are sterile, and offer nothing to wildlife. A better choice for pollinator-friendly gardens is the Smooth Hydrangea in its original, “unimproved” form, as we offer here. This Wild Hydrangea, as it is also known, is not as flashy as ‘Annabelle’, but it nourishes all kinds of native bees and beneficial wasps, flies, and beetles. Opt for substance over fashion!
