Hydrangea Incrediball® Blush Smooth Hydrangea

Proven Winners® ColorChoice® Flowering Shrubs presents the Hydrangea Incrediball Blush, a remarkable variety that retains all the cherished characteristics of the original Incrediball®. This hydrangea, scientifically known as Hydrangea arborescens 'NCHA4', showcases enormous mophead flowers, comparable in size to basketballs, that bloom in a distinctive silvery-pink hue. These blooms gracefully evolve into a deeper pink as they mature and transition to a jade green by the season's end. The Incrediball Blush Hydrangea, blooming on new wood, ensures a continuous display of fresh flowers through autumn, with the added benefit of dried blooms that enhance indoor arrangements for an extended period.

Renowned for its resilience and stunning beauty, Hydrangea Incrediball Blush thrives as a native plant to North America, specifically the United States. It boasts a robust, triploid structure with a compact, upright, and rounded form that spreads elegantly. Its blooms, supported by tall, sturdy stems, remain unyielded by heavy rainfall, ensuring a reliable and vibrant display year after year, even following the harshest winters. Ideal for beds, borders, or as a standout with mass plantings, this shrub, reaching heights and widths of 4 to 5 feet, is an exquisite addition to any space, whether in your garden or as part of your indoor décor.

This cold-hardy and easy-to-care-for hydrangea thrives in sunny to partially shaded areas, preferring moist, well-draining soil. It's noteworthy for its salt tolerance and rabbit resistance, making it a practical choice for various garden settings. Pruning in late winter or early spring is recommended to maintain its shape and promote healthy growth.

The Hydrangea Incrediball Blush's native status underscores its environmental benefits. Adapted to the regional climate and soil, it flourishes without the need for constant fertilization or watering, post-establishment. Its presence supports biodiversity, offering shelter and nourishment to local wildlife and pollinators, thereby enhancing the ecological balance of your garden.

Incorporating granular fertilizer formulated for flowering shrubs can enrich the soil and support the vibrant growth of pink flowers, ensuring your Hydrangea Incrediball Blush remains a stunning feature in your garden. As new growth begins to emerge on the stems, the application of rose fertilizer can further enhance its blooming potential, making it a magnificent spectacle in any landscape.
