Invincibelle^{^®} Spirit Smooth Hydrangea Hydrangea arborescens

Part Sun to Sun 36 - 48

This hydrangea is a bit of an Overachiever. It's cold hardy, blooming as far north as Manitoba. It also handles the heat, thriving in the south. This durable native needs less water than other hydrangeas, and it blooms from midsummer to frost. And did you notice that color? This pink hydrangea is as hardy and adaptable as 'Annabelle' but produces loads of hot pink flowers from early summer to frost.

If that isn't enough for you, Invincibelle Spirit is also helping to fight breast cancer. $1 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.
