Variety description

10 August 2026

The Invincibelle Spirit (NCHA1) variety was derived from natural forms with pink flowers. An improved version of the variety, Invincibelle Spirit II (NCHA2), is distinguished by more compact dimensions and increased stem strength, which better support the inflorescences.

The plant reaches a height of 90–150 cm. Flowering begins in early summer and continues until frost. The inflorescences are large, globose, and pink, with a shade that does not depend on the soil pH level. The plant is used as a specimen plant, in mass plantings, or for cut flowers.
