Limelight Hydrangea (Hydrangea paniculata ‘Limelight’) is a slightly compact, easy-to-care-for panicle hydrangea cultivar developed by Proven Winners. Loved for their iconic Hydrangea blooms in fun new flower color, these hardy garden shrubs are such a fun garden addition. Limelight Hydrangeas, like many Panicle hydrangeas, are considered home landscaping staples that provide visual interest all year long. In the spring they burst with dark green leaves which make a great backdrop for your early spring flowering plants. Then, the leaves darken to a deeper green and they explode in the summer with their own football-shaped flower clusters, shining with a pale green color. Those flowers will shift in color as they age, from pale green to pink to rose and then to burgundy in the fall. This flowering shrub typically grows to 6-8 feet tall and just as wide. Ideal care for the Limelight Paniculata Hydrangea would include partial sun and well-drained soils. However, these are hardy shrubs and have learned to tolerate a variety of lighting conditions including full sun and heavy afternoon shade. Most impressive is this plant’s ability to tolerate both hot summers and cold winters. Unlike most hydrangea plants that boast color-changing tendencies, the soil pH does not affect the coloring of this plant’s blooms. Perfect for planting in USDA growing zones 3 through 9, the Limelight Hydrangea is a hardy garden edition that you can enjoy throughout the seasons. Gentle colors and large flowers make this plant ideal for a wide variety of garden designs. Most popularly used in hedge plantings, container gardens, or as a landscape focal point, this lime green Hydrangea is a garden staple. These popular summer bloomers are also a great addition to cut flower arrangements.
