The Incrediball\u00ae hydrangea (Hydrangea arborescens<\/em> ‘Abetwo’ Incrediball) is a broadleaf<\/a>, deciduous<\/a> flowering shrub. Like Annabelle hydrangea, it is a cultivar of the smooth hydrangea (Hydrangea arborescens<\/em>) that is hardy and flowers on new wood, but Incrediball has stronger branches and bigger flower heads than the Annabelle. The cultivar name is ‘Abetwo,’ while “Incrediball”\u2014notably, not “incredible”\u2014is a trademark name. “Incrediball” was presumably chosen as the name to trumpet the impressive size (up to 12 inches) of the “balls” of flowers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Incrediball hydrangea plants can be used in the landscape in a number of ways. These shrubs have broad rounded, sharply toothed, dark green leaves and are attractive enough to be used singly as specimen plants<\/a>. Some gardeners choose to grow them en masse along a property line to form a border, while others include them in foundation plantings<\/a>. Their shade-tolerance makes them suitable for woodland gardens, although they produce larger flower heads in full sun than in partial shade. Incrediball hydrangeas are plants that attract butterflies<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These shrubs are considered fast-growing and are typically planted in fall. In favorable conditions, they can be expected to live for 20 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hydrangeas contain hydrangin, which is toxic to humans1<\/sup>, and toxic to dogs, cats, and horses<\/p>\n\"Facebook\"<\/a>\"twitter\"<\/a>\"youtube\"<\/a>\"instagram\"<\/a>\"mail\"<\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
