From the same family as the beloved Annabelle hydrangea but improved with stronger stems, larger blooms and a striking blush of color. Incrediball®Blush hydrangea will rebloom giving you new flowers through frost. The massive blooms are a striking silvery-pink held upright on strong stems. This group of hydrangea, incrediball series, are very reliable and bloom every year, even in the cold northern regions. Native to North America, this hydrangea is very hardy and reliable.

In early spring, just as the new growth begins to emerge on the stems, cut the plant back by about one-third its height. Blooms on new wood or current years growth so no worries about hard winters or late frost. Deadheading not necessary.
