Description
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. With its 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 use in fresh or dried floral arrangements.
Landscape & Garden Uses
Growing quite large to 3 to 5 feet tall and 3 to 5 feet wide, Little Lime makes an impressive specimen in small garden spaces or colorful groupings and hedges in larger spaces. Also a nice addition to mixed flowering shrub borders, as an accent in home foundation plantings, as an accent in perennial gardens, and in medium to large containers
Spacing: 3′ for solid hedges; 7’+ for space between plants

Growing Preferences
Little 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. They are easy to grow in average, moist, well-drained soil. In the South, grows best in a location where it will receive some shade during the hottest part of the afternoon. For best flowering provide at least 6 hours of sun a day. USDA Zones: 3a-8b Find Your Zone >
Note: Little Lime is a Hydrangea paniculata species that produces its flowers from buds that are formed on “new wood” (the current season’s growth). This means you don’t want to prune them in late spring or summer when they’re preparing to bloom.

Recently had some juniper removed and need a shrub with nice eye appeal, but one that would not beome too large and block some of our view from our bay window. the Little Lime Hydrangea is the perfect solution. the plant arrived quickly and was undamaged. It has only been planted about 2-1/2 weeks, but apears to be adapting well. I am looking forward to Spring time, when it will really grow and begin to flower.————————————————————–Thanks for the photo! We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy it for years to come!

I ordered from Wilsons the Hydrangea called Limelight PeeGee which was a topiary which I planted fall 2020. It came up so gorgeous in Spring and by June had started to form at least 4 dozen heads of large flower. I was so satisfied I decided to try Little lime which came quickly as soon as ordered. I opened the box and out popped a plant in full bloom, 9 large heads of Hydrangea in bloom, from white to lime green to an overcast on the larger heads of pink. I was expecting a bare plant to stick in the dirt for Spring and each day now have enjoyed this endless bloomer right into late October.——————————————-We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy them for years to come!

I was excited to receive this plant. It arrived in great condition and healthy. It has been in the ground for a little over a month and has grown quite a bit. I cannot wait for the blooms and to see how it fares in the Texas summer.————————————We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy it for years to come!
