Buy Now: Enhance Your Garden with the Resilient Incrediball Storm Proof™ Hydrangea!
Product Overview
Meet the Incrediball Storm Proof™ Hydrangea (Hydrangea arborescens), an essential addition to any garden! Unlike traditional smooth hydrangeas, which often struggle with floppy blooms, this storm-resistant variety features strong, upright stems that keep its large, abundant flower clusters standing tall—even during harsh summer storms.
Although its blooms are slightly smaller than the original Incrediball® Hydrangea, they remain impressively showy, making this compact variety an excellent landscape centerpiece. Its vigorous growth and rounded, dense habit create a stunning garden presence with minimal maintenance.
Key Features
• Storm-Proof Structure: Extra-strong stems prevent drooping, keeping blooms upright in wind and rain.
• Abundant Flower Clusters: Large, voluminous blooms brighten gardens all season.
• Compact Growth Habit: Ideal for smaller gardens or multi-layered landscape designs.
Planting & Care Instructions
• Soil Needs: Adaptable to different soil types but thrives best in well-drained areas—avoid overly wet conditions. A layer of mulch improves moisture retention and soil health.
• Light Requirements: Prefers full sun in cooler climates, while afternoon shade benefits it in warmer zones.
• Pruning Guidelines: Blooms on new wood—prune back by one-third in early spring as fresh growth appears. Moderate pruning helps strengthen stems while encouraging vigorous flowering.
• Flower Color: Unlike many hydrangeas, soil pH does not affect bloom color, providing consistent beauty season after season.
Ideal Uses
This versatile hydrangea fits beautifully into a variety of garden designs, including:
• Foundation Plantings – Frame your home's entrance with lush, long-lasting blooms.
• Perennial Gardens – Mix with other flowering plants for eye-catching contrast.
• Hedges – Create vibrant, living borders for defined spaces.
• Cut Flower Gardens – Excellent for fresh bouquets or dried arrangements.
• Pollinator Gardens – Draw beneficial wildlife like bees and butterflies.

How Your Plants Are Shipped & Care Instructions
To ensure a seamless transition to your garden, please follow the specific steps below based on the type of plant you ordered:
📦 1. Container-Grown Plants
Our container-grown plants are shipped with fully established root systems nestled in premium potting media.
- Unpack & Water Instantly: Carefully remove the protective packaging and check the soil moisture. Give the pot a thorough watering until moisture runs out the bottom drainage holes.
- Acclimation Period: Place your container plant in a sheltered, partially shaded location for 2 to 3 days to help it recover from transit before moving it to full sun.
- Planting Depth: Plant at the exact same depth it was sitting in its shipping container, gently loosening the outer roots if they are encircling the root ball.
- Moisture Control: Keep the soil consistently damp but never soggy for the first few weeks as the roots expand.
🌱 2. Seedling & Liner Bare-Root Plants
Seedlings and liners are young, vibrant plants shipped without pots to make transit highly efficient.
- Immediate Attention: Unpack immediately upon arrival. If you cannot plant them right away, keep the roots moist and store them in a cool, shaded location out of the wind.
- Hydration First: Soak the roots in a bucket of water for 1 to 2 hours right before planting to wake them up.
- Planting: Spread the roots out naturally in the planting hole. Ensure the crown (where the roots meet the stem) sits right at the soil level. Water thoroughly to settle the soil around the roots.
🌾 3. Groundcover Bare-Root Plants
Groundcover bare-root bundles (like Vinca minor or Sedum) are shipped dormant or semi-dormant, ready to take off once in the ground.
- Check Moisture: Open the bundle immediately. The packing material around the roots should be damp. If planting is delayed a day or two, lightly mist the roots to keep them from drying out.
- Soak Before Planting: Soak the root systems in water for about an hour before putting them in the ground.
- Spacing & Depth: Plant them at the same depth they were growing previously, firming the soil gently over the roots to eliminate any air pockets. Water heavily right after planting and keep the area consistently moist until established.
Shipping Information
Orders containing only hard goods generally ship right away
as the inventory allows. Those items ship year-round and generally within one
week.
When ordering plants during fall or spring shipping, we will
set your order for the next available shipping week appropriate for your
location. April and May are our busiest months, and sometimes shipping delays
happen. Plants may be processed later than scheduled or the shipping department may get behind. This is not the norm, but it does sometimes happen. Please bear with us if this happens.
Our bare-root (field-grown) trees and shrubs typically arrive at the facility for shipping in November, December, and January (for fall shipping) and in February, March, April, and May (for spring shipping).
An example of month-by-month shipping would be as follows, as plants are available:
January - zones 9 - 10
February - zones 8 - 10
March - zones 7 - 10
April - zones 6 - 10
May - zones 5 - 9
June - zones 3 - 8
July - zones 3 - 7
August - zones 4 - 7
September - zones 5 - 8
October - zones 5 (some areas) - 9
November - zones 6 (some areas) - 10
December - zones 8 - 10
