Notes
'Invincibelle Mini Mauvette' smooth hydrangea (Hydrangea arborescens 'Invincibelle Mini Mauvette') is a shrub for borders, containers, foundation plantings, and cut flowers. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full sun to part shade and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It stays near three feet tall and wide and bears lavender-pink mopheads on strong, upright stems. Unpruned plants bloom from early summer until frost, and pruned plants still bloom from mid summer until frost. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice.
Pairs well with Cinnamon fern, Bellwort, and Switchgrass.
