With its huge, 8 to 12 inch long snow cone-shaped flower clusters, Limelight Hydrangea puts on a spectacular show of color in the garden mid-summer through fall. The flowers of Limelight emerge a chartreuse color turning to cream before fading to deep pink in the fall. Soil pH does not effect bloom color. As an added bonus, Limelight blooms make great cut flowers for use in both fresh or dried floral arrangements.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLandscape \u0026amp; Garden Uses\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eGrowing in an upright rounded form 7 to 8 feet tall and 6 to 7 feet wide, the Limelight Hydrangea makes an impressive shrub or tree form specimen all on its own. That said, groupings and hedges of this cultivar are even more spectacular. Also a nice addition to mixed flowering shrub borders, as an accent in home foundation plantings, as a background in perennial gardens, and in large pots, planters or other containers of 18 inches or more in diameter. A fine addition to white color theme gardens and cut flower and cottage gardens.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eSuggested Spacing: \u003c\/span\u003e 5 to 6 feet apart for solid hedges; 12 feet apart for space between plants\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGrowing Preferences\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eLimelight Hydrangea is exceptionally easy to grow when planted right and in the right spot. Almost any moist but well-drained soil of average fertility will do. Limelight can take the heat at our location here in north-central Georgia, but it's also exceptionally cold hardy, withstanding even the coldest winter temperatures as far north as USDA Zone 3a, where it will also tolerate full, all day sun. In the South, zones 7 and below, it will tolerate full sun, but we think it performs and looks its best with some filtered sun or dappled shade during the hottest hours of summer afternoons. At least 5 hours of direct sunlight per day or all day \u003cspan\u003elightly\u003c\/span\u003e filtered sun is suggested for best flowering.

And a much larger size, for less money, than I would have paid if I had purchased locally. Planted them two weeks ago - they are healthy, and happy in their new home and I am looking forward to watching them grow and bloom. Planted them in a spot with deep late-afternoon shade, so the blooms would brighten up that space.\n----------------- WBG Reply: Hi Ken - Thanks so much for the review and sharing your experience with us and future visitors to Wilson Bros Gardens.
