Invincibelle Limetta® Smooth Hydrangea — 4” Proven Winners® ColorChoice® Shrub

This plant is available for pre-order, with spring 2026 delivery. 
Invincibelle Limetta® is a refreshing, modern twist on our native Hydrangea arborescens, producing cool lime-green mophead blooms that hold their color beautifully through summer before softening to jade and misty green. As a native smooth hydrangea, it is naturally disease resistant, incredibly durable, and highly reliable, even in challenging soils—including clay. Because it blooms on new wood, Limetta® flowers every single year, and once mature, it becomes deer resistant, making it one of the easiest hydrangeas for homeowners to grow. Strong stems keep the blooms upright, and the compact habit fits effortlessly into any landscape.
