Hydrangea paniculata Limelight Prime
panicle Hydrangea
Hydrangea 'Limelight Prime' is an improved, more refined ‘Limelight’, with darker leaves, stronger stems, a more compact habit, and upright growth. It makes a great container plant. The blooms emerge a vivid lime-green and maintain that colour until they transition into a bubblegum pink and then a deep punch pink. It also makes an excellent cut flower, fresh or dried. It is drought tolerant and blooms every year, even in cold climates.

Growing and Maintenance Tips
