Hydrangea Incrediball Blush, Smooth Hydrangea
A new and improved Annabelle Hydrangea–but pink. Incrediball Blush Hydrangea boasts strong, beefy stems and gargantuan blooms. Each pale pink flower head of Incrediball Blush Hydrangea has roughly four times as many flowers as ‘Annabelle,’ creating a blossom as large as a basketball. Its strong stems hold the massive flowers up, even in heavy rain. Absolutely spectacular in the garden and the vase. In the fall, the blossoms transform to deep chartreuse, creating another dramatic sight. The long-lasting dried flower balls last well into late winter on the shrub or for months more in home arrangements. Incrediball Blush Hydrangea will grow 4-5 feet tall and can be cut back in early spring. A hybrid of the Missouri native shrub, H. arborescens, Incrediball Pink Hydrangea is as tough as it is beautiful. Blooming on new growth, they are guaranteed to bloom every year, even after a harsh winter.
Plant in part shade to full shade. Although tolerant of full sun, due to its large flowers and foliage shrubs will need considerable water in full sun. Plant in soil that has been amended with compost or other organic matter. Adding a starter fertilizer or giving a light application of an all purpose liquid fertilizer when planting will help it get off to a fast start. We use Starter Plus Bio Tone Organic. Incrediball Blush blooms on new wood and should be cut back in late winter or early spring.
Offered in-house. Subject to availability.
