With its easy maintenance and widespread adaptability, this panicle hydrangea is perfect for gardeners of all ages and skill levels. Its vibrant blooms take center stage in the summertime, long after other hydrangea have faded. A sunny spot in cooler climates, and a bit of shade in warmer ones, is all it needs to thrive.
Transform your garden with the stunning focal point of the Limelight Hydrangea Tree. This versatile tree, growing 6-8' tall and wide, features large inflorescences that change colors throughout the seasons. Starting as pale green, they develop into brilliant white in mid-summer and then blend into charming pinks, creams, and greens for the fall. This low maintenance, adaptable hydrangea is a must-have for gardeners of all ages.
Care:
Blooming on new wood, a simple winter pruning is required. Remove about 1/3 to 1/2 of last year’s growth to control size and set the scene for the upcoming season’s flowers. Use ‘Limelight’ as a screening hedge planted 6-7’ apart. It’s a stunning stand alone specimen, and unsurpassed in fresh or dried cut flower arrangements. Fertilize in early spring with our SR-18-5-10 slow release fertilizer for maximum growth and plant health.
