The Limelight Hydrangea is a wonderful shrub for flowers late in the season, when most other shrubs have finished flowering. It produces large pyramidal sprays of flowers that open creamy-white, and then turn chartreuse-green in late summer, before turning pink and rose in the fall. As well, the leaves also turn lovely shades of red in fall. This is a great plant if you garden in areas that are too cold for the common hydrangea, but even if you already grow hydrangeas, the Limelight Hydrangea is something special and different that you will love. It grows everywhere, no matter how cold, as well as growing right down to Florida and southern Texas.
Plant your Limelight Hydrangea is a sunny or partially shaded area of your garden. It will grow in any well-drained soil, and benefits from the addition of organic material to the soil. It grows just 6 to 8 feet tall, and as much across, so it is the perfect background shrub for any garden. If you like hydrangeas you will love the Limelight Hydrangea, with its ‘decorator colors’ flowers that can also be picked and dried, bringing beauty and color into your home for months and months.
