Hydrangea p. Limelight

Limelight Hydrangea is a fast-growing upright deciduous shrub noted for its dense cone-shaped panicles and mixed yellow and green fall color.  These large 8” panicles bloom white, mature to lime-green, and then acquire rose-pink tones before eventually fading to beige as its leaves turn.  The flowers bloom all summer into fall and are very attractive to butterflies.  Best bloom in partial sun and rich, moist well-drained soils.  

MAINTENANCE NEEDS:  Medium Maintenance. Mulch soil to maintain moisture and overwinter.  If pruning is needed do so after flowering. Slight susceptibility to bud blight, wilt, leaf spot, and mildew.  Aphids are occasional problems.   

LANDSCAPE USES:  Accents or Group Plantings, Borders, Woodland Gardens, Foundation Plantings, Hedges, Containers.

COMPANION PLANTS:  Dogwood, Itea, Astilbe
