Hydrangea arborescens Lime Rickey® (Smooth Hydrangea) is a compact, bushy, deciduous shrub boasting large, domed flowerheads packed with jade green florets in early summer. Opening from lime green buds, the blossoms fade to white in late summer. They are borne on strong, sturdy stems that do not flop over and contrast nicely with the foliage of ovate, toothed leaves. Incredibly hardy and reliable, this US-native hydrangea provides months of pretty color. Its compact size makes it perfect for mixed borders, small gardens, and patio containers. The flowers make great cut flowers, fresh or dried.
