The distinctive white blooms of the Annabelle hydrangea turn green in the summer and brown in the fall. Even after the frost, as you see in this picture with the snow on the ground, they continue to hold some dried blooms that provide interest in winter. On my property, this hydrangea happily grows on a shady hill beneath white pines.
I am in love with life. I love to garden--bringing beauty to my world, providing organic vegetables for my family of nine, and growing ancient herbs for healing. I also work for women to know and embrace themselves: bodies, health, relationships, family, spirit, living--creating a life of beauty and growth.

"There are almost too many garden blogs to count these days. One to bookmark and read is Heirloom Gardener...[I]t is hard to believe the complexity of plants she manages to work into her less than a half acre zone 6b plot...This is a blog for every serious gardener who aspires to garden at a higher level."
