Invincibelle® Ruby hydrangea is a real gem of a plant. That’s why it’s our 2020 Hydrangea of the Year!
First, it’s a Hydrangea arborescens. That means you get the durability and reliable flowering of this outstanding native species.
- Blooms on new wood
- Hardy to USDA Zone 3
- More tolerant of water stress than Hydrangea macrophylla
How awesome is all of that?
It gets even better because Invincibelle® Ruby has outstanding color: the ruby red buds open to bright pink florets with a flash of silver on the underside of each petal.
The flowers are beautiful, and there are plenty of them since Invincibelle® Ruby is a strong rebloomer. Once this hydrangea gets going in summer, you have months of flowers ahead of you!
It will get 3-4′ tall and wide and grows in full sun to part shade.
