LIMELIGHT PRIME® — Earlier, Stronger, and More Refined (1 Gallon Size)

There’s a reason Limelight® became one of the most planted hydrangeas in America—and Limelight Prime® is the next evolution. This improved selection of Hydrangea paniculata was developed to bloom earlier, stay more compact, and deliver stronger stems that hold those massive flower heads upright all season long.
The blooms open in fresh green tones, quickly transition to creamy white, and then deepen into rich pinks and reds as the season progresses—giving you a full spectrum of color from summer into fall.
At the 1 gallon size, this is a well-rooted, established shrub ready to make an impact this season and take off in your landscape.
