The first Hydrangea arborescens that blooms pink -- think of it as a pink version of the popular 'Annabelle'. The flowers emerge dark, hot pink and mature to rich, clear pink. Plants bloom from summer until frost on new growth, and the dried flower "mops" remain decorative in winter. Hardy to Zone 3, so even harsh winters won't stop it from flowering. Use Invincibelle™ Spirit as low-growing hedge or add it to borders and foundation plantings. The Breast Cancer Research Foundation will receive $1 for each plant sold. A Proven Winners®/Color Choice® variety. 'NCHA1' PPAF
Hydrangea is a valuable genus of some 100 species of shrubs and vines grown for their large and very showy flower heads. Hydrangeas are at their best in summer and fall -- quiet time for most woody plants -- and are worth having for that reason alone. For information on Hydrangea care, click "GROWING TIPS" at left.
