Nice to meet you, my name is Limelight Hydrangea! I am best known for my enormous blooms of upright flower heads that shift from lime green in the spring, to pink, red, and finally burgundy throughout the summer and fall. My vibrant and ever-shifting flowers combined with my attention grabbing height and spread are sure to make me a striking focal point in your garden, whether I am mass planted or grown as a singular accent. I require occasional maintenance, and look my best when pruned in the late winter after the extreme cold has passed. Other than this simple request I am extremely adaptable and will thrive in most garden conditions. I perform beautifully in both full sun and full shade, am not particular to soil type or pH, and am highly tolerant of urban pollution - you can plant me right in the city!

Watering
Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry, ensuring even moisture without overwatering. Most plants prefer deep, infrequent watering to encourage strong root growth. Avoid waterlogged soil by using well-draining soil and pots with drainage holes.
Soil
Choose a well-draining soil that suits your plant’s needs, ensuring it provides proper nutrients and aeration. For most plants, a high-quality triple mix—blending topsoil, compost, and peat or loam—offers a balanced foundation. Avoid heavy, compacted soils that retain excess moisture, which can lead to root rot.
Fertilizer
Feed with a balanced fertilizer as needed, following label instructions, or contact our team for guidance.
Pruning
Prune regularly to remove dead or damaged growth, maintain shape, and promote healthy, vigorous new growth. Use clean, sharp tools and trim just above a node or bud for best results.
