Botanical: Hydrangea paniculata ‘Limelight’
Description: A Proven Winners® ColorChoice® shrub. An exciting hardy Hydrangea from Holland, 'Limelight' has unique bright chartreuse blooms in mid-summer that hold bright and refreshing color right into autumn when the blooms change color to a rich deep pink.  The autumn display of chartreuse and pink blooms on the same plant is breathtaking!  The color makes a great addition to the garden and it blends wonderfully with all other colors.  Use 'Limelight', either fresh or dried, in bouquets to make a unique floral design.  This is an easy to grow plant with reliable flowering and flower color regardless of soil pH.  The flower heads are of good size, ranging from 6 to 12 inches and are held upright on the shrub.  The blooms are well distributed making a very nice plant and display.
Growing tips: Prefers good loamy soil.  Most adaptable of all hydrangeas to different soil types.  Most urban tolerant and very difficult to kill.  Best if pruned back in late winter or early spring.  Prefers medium moisture, not as water dependent as Hydrangea macrophylla.  Will tolerate drought.  Fertilize in early spring by applying a slow release fertilizer specialized for trees and shrubs.  Follow the label for the recommended rate of application.  PP#12874, PBRAF
