| Limelight Hydrangeas in one of my landscapes - Jan Johnsen |
It is hardy to Zone 3, can grow to 10 feet tall and thrives in full sun or partial shade. It makes both a wonderful cut flower and landscape plant. Looks great in October when it turns a pinkish hue:
Now there is a dwarf form called 'Little Lime' from Proven Winners which also grows in full sun or part shade. Its final height is 3-5’ tall and wide, about a third to half as big as Limelight.

This hydrangea blooms from midsummer to frost. Like its bigger sibling, Little Lime’s flowers gradually change from lime-green to pink and make wonderful bouquets, fresh or dried.
It will flower every year and will fit in any yard. It looks great with snowdrift roses and low grasses in a white garden....What's not to love?
