Hydrangea, Invincibelle® Spirit

The first pink flowered mophead Hydrangea arborescens! 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.   Rich pink flowers bloom from early summer to frost. Prune back in spring. Very hardy. Native.

Not only is this hydrangea pink, but it is BRIGHT pink. The blooms of ‘Invincibelle Spirit’ are a little smaller than ‘Annabelle’ blooms, but this may be an advantage since they will be less likely to droop after a rain. This remarkable hydrangea was developed by Dr. Tom Ranney at North Carolina State University’s Mountain Horticultural Crops Research Station.
