Botanical Reference: Hydrangea arborescens
 
A better pink 'Annabelle' - type hydrangea! Meet Invincibelle® Spirit II hydrangea - an improved version of Invincibelle® Spirit, the original pink 'Annabelle' hydrangea. It delivers darker foliage, stiffer stems, and larger flowers of a deeper, truer pink. The blooms age to an attractive green instead of the bisque color of the original. This hydrangea grows from Manitoba to Mobile, blooming every year from mid-summer to frost. It is a strong rebloomer. $1 from each Invincibelle® Spirit II sold is donated to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation® (BCRF). We encourage you to donate as well. BCRF is dedicated to advancing the world's most promising research to eradicate breast cancer in our lifetime.For more information about BCRF, visit www.bcrfcure.org.
