It's the pink 'Annabelle' hydrangea! Invincibelle Spirit is as hardy and adaptable as 'Annabelle' but produces loads of hot pink flowers from early summer to frost. It's a reliable bloomer in the north and is also heat tolerant. Coming to garden centers Spring 2010.

Our goal is to raise $1,000,000 for breast cancer research. $1.00 will be sent to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation for each Invincibelle Spirit sold. We encourage you to donate as well. BCRF is dedicated to preventing breast cancer and finding a cure in our lifetime by funding clinical and translational research worldwide.
