Hydrangea paniculata 'Limelight'

Description:

Does anything evoke thoughts of effortless elegance quite like a border of white Hydrangeas? Limelight is a fabulous and reliable tall, bushy Hydrangea which produces masses of slightly cone shaped flowerheads. These emerge lime green, fade to cream, then speckled pink before turning into a crispy seedhead which adds winter interest to the border. Best effects are achieved when planted en-mass for a swathe of cloud like flowers lasting all summer and into autumn. A great plant pairing is an evergreen hedge for the structure. Does best in a sunny spot with reliably moist soil, so irrigation is required to keep this plant thriving.
