Limelight Hydrangea, Hydrangea 'Limelight', Panicle Hydrangea 'Limelight', Hydrangea paniculata 'Zwijnenburg' PP12874
Incredibly popular, Hydrangea paniculata ‘Limelight’ is a robust, upright, and spreading deciduous shrub boasting huge, luxuriant conical flowers up to 6-12 in. long (15-30 cm). Held upright on sturdy stems, they are well distributed, making a very attractive plant and display. As an added bonus, they change color as they mature, gradually turning from lime-green to creamy white in late summer to a rich, deep pink before finally fading to beige in fall. As the flower show fades, the oval, dark green leaves turn to lovely shades of red for a breathtaking autumn display. Persisting well into winter, the panicles provide additional winter interest.
