Dwarf/sun-part shade/ 3' ht x 4-5'sp
A dwarf form of the 'Limelight' hydrangea, 'Little Lime' has the same great cone-shaped flowers but is about a third the size of the original. The lime-green flowers mature to pink and burgundy in fall. Use the blooms for fresh-cut or dried floral arrangements. Fits easily into smaller landscapes, mixed borders, or in foundation plantings. Will tolerate some sun in average well-drained soils.

Penny Mac's flowers appear throughout the warm summer months because they also set flower buds on new shoots that produce flowers that same summer. These reblooming, hydrangeas tend to produce more flowers in late summer than typical types. Depending on soil type, the blooms will appear pink in alkaline soil and blue in acidic soil. Use in shade perennial beds, in borders, or foundations in part shade.
Sun-part shade/ 4'-6'ht x 4-6'sp
Sweet Starlight has the same great cone-shaped flowers as LimeLight and LittleLime, but on a slightly larger plant. Starting off as a greenish white, the flowers change to a blush pink, turning to a darker burgundy-pink in autumn. The flowers hold strong right up to the first hard frost. Sweet Starlight is great as a stand-alone accent plant, or in mass combined with fall blooming grasses. Full sun to part shade in well-drained soil is best to maximize your flower count. Flowers come from the current season's wood.
