Noteworthy Characteristics
For those familiar with the Limelight Hydrangea the Little Lime is an amazing dwarf version. All the appeal of the Limelight but at one third to half the size and with it's magnificent flower clusters, Little Lime puts on a spectacular show of color in the garden. The flowers almost completely cover the bush, emerging a bright lime-green in summer fading to a stunning pink in the fall. The flowers are great for cutting and using in fresh or dried floral arrangement.
Uses
Great for use as a sigle speciman focal shrub, in small or large groupings, as a foundation shrub, in a cottage garden, or in a woodland border garden. The flowers are great for cutting and using in fresh or dried floral arrangement.
Culture & Care Tips
Litlle Lime can take the heat at our location in mid-Georgia, but is also exceptionally cold hardy, withstanding even the coldest winter temperatures in the North. In the South, it's best in a location where it will receive some shade in the hottest part of the afternoon. For best blooming give it at least 6 hours of sun a day.
