Invincibelle Lace® Smooth Hydrangea — 4” Proven Winners® ColorChoice® Shrub
This plant is available for pre-order, with spring 2026 delivery.
Invincibelle Lace® is a breakthrough native Hydrangea arborescens subsp. radiata that combines the elegance of a lacecap bloom with the rugged durability of our East Coast smooth hydrangeas. Its airy, deep mauve-pink florets are framed by starry white bracts, creating a refined, textural look rarely seen in arborescens types. Because it is a native hydrangea, it brings excellent disease resistance, impressive adaptability to clay soils, and reliable flowering every year since it blooms on new wood. Once mature, it also becomes deer resistant. This is a sophisticated but incredibly tough shrub—perfect for gardeners who want something truly unique.
