INVINCIBELLE Spirit Hydrangea is an exciting new hardy hydrangea that produces lush pink blooms that measure up to 8 inches in diameter. The first ever pink flowering mop-head hydrangea, Invincibelle Spirit Hydrangea is a must-have new flowering shrub from Proven Winners Color Choice Shrubs. A vigorous growing hardy hydrangea down to USDA Zone 3, Invincibelle Spirit Hydrangea delivers big pink flowers on

Invincibelle Hydrangea Origins:
This hardy hydrangea was bred by Dr. Thomas Ranney, NCUS of Mountain Horticultural Crop Research and Extension Center, who developed this plant selection from its parent, Annabelle Hydrangea. Annabelle Hydrangea is a midsummer-blooming Hydrangea arborescens selection that blooms on new wood each year. Unlike Annabelle whose flowers are large, white attractive balls with stems that are not sturdy enough to support the flowers during a heavy rain, Invincibelle Spirit Hydrangea like Incrediball Hydangea has strong, sturdy stems that resist flopping even under the weight of the massive flowers.
This new selection of Hydrangea arborescens from the Proven Winners® Color Choice® Shrub program has sturdier stems and up to 4 times more flowers that Hydrangea Annabelle and best of all they flowers are a lovely shade of pink.

This showy smooth hydrangea is generally trouble-free from pests or diseases, making it a joy to add to any garden. Invincibelle Hydrangea blooms on new wood, so even if killed to the ground by extreme weather it will still produce summer flowers the next season.

Quick Fire® Hydrangea is the first hardy hydrangea to bloom every year and compliments Invincibelle Spirit Hydrangea's blooms and bright dark green foliage.
Invincibelle Spirit Hydrangea is very adaptable, but thrives in rich, well drained, moist soil. This smooth hydrangea blooms on new wood and will tolerate being cut back hard or even to the ground.
