Little Lime ^{Hydrangea pan. 'Jane' ppaf. cbraf}

A new dwarf form of the ever popular ‘Limelight’ Hydrangea. Little Lime Hydrangea sports the same great flowers and coloration as Limelight but at one third the size you can fit it in any spot in your garden.

The color makes a great addition to the garden and it blends wonderfully with all other colors.

Just like 'Limelight' you can use the flowers in bouquets either fresh or dried to make a unique floral design. This is an easy to grow plant with reliable flowering and flower color regardless of soil pH or winter temperatures.
