About This Plant
Plant description
As the name implies 'Limelight' has exquisite, bright, lime-green to cream flowers, a beautiful color that adds a much needed brightness to the late summer landscape. In autumn the blooms display shades of pink, burgundy and green. Excellent vigor and floriferous blooming. Prefers loamy, moist, well-drained soil in sun or part shade. Flowers on new wood so it can be pruned in winter or early spring. Hybridized by Pieter Zwijnenburg, Jr. Rarely to never fed on by Japanese beetles. 2006 Gold Medal Plant Award. (CPBRAF)

Our Tips & Recommendations
Watering
Hydrangeas are thirsty plants. Water deeply 2–3 times per week, especially in hot weather. Morning watering is best to prevent leaf scorch.
Soil & Watering
For blue flowers, add aluminum sulfate to acidify soil (pH 5.2–5.5). For pink flowers, add lime to raise pH (6.0–6.2). White varieties don’t change color.
Pruning
Most hydrangeas bloom on old wood — prune right after flowering in summer. Panicle and smooth hydrangeas bloom on new wood and can be pruned in late winter.
