For those familiar with the Limelight Hydrangea the Little Lime is an amazing dwarf version. All the appeal of the Limelight but at one third to half the size. With its magnificent flower clusters, Little Lime puts on a spectacular show of color in the garden. The flowers almost completely cover the bush, emerging a bright lime-green in summer fading to a stunning pink in the fall. The flowers are great for cutting and use in fresh or dried floral arrangements.
