Hydrangea paniculata 'Little Lime' 23W28 Panicle S2- (Wood, 2011) Compact Panicle Hydrangea, Mature plant size: 3-5ft., Sterile flowers emerging soft light green but maturing to pink and burgundy in fall, USDA Hardiness Zone 3-8, Michigan Bloom Week ISO WW27, In Garden Bed S2 for 4.1 YEARS (Bluestone). Planted in 2019.
Missouri Botanical Garden: 'Jane', commonly sold under the trade name of LITTLE LIME, is a compact cultivar that typically grows in an upright rounded mound to 3-5' tall and as wide. It is the product of an open pollination in a planned breeding program that took place in Grand Haven, Michigan in August of 2005 between Hydrangea paniculata 'Limelight Variegated' (female parent) and an unknown selection of Hydrangea paniculata (male parent). 'Jane' is particularly noted for its large mophead type inflorescences (panicles to 5" tall by 4" wide), with sterile flowers emerging soft light green but maturing to pink and burgundy in fall. Additional features of interest include compact, upright-mounded shape, free branching habit and strong stems which hold the panicles upright with no drooping. Flowers typically bloom from July through September. Ovate, serrulate, dark green leaves (to 2 1/2” long) are attractive during the growing season, but produce generally undistinguished fall color. Flower panicles may be cut for fresh arrangements or for drying, or may be left on the plant where they often persist into winter. U. S. Plant Patent PP22,330 was issued on December 13, 2011.
2020 notes: It is 16 inches tall and has an oblong shape measuring 16 inches wide and 30 inches long. I have not trimmed it yet, but will probably make it more ball shaped. Planted one year ago. Attractive lime green panicles. This was purchased in a 4x4 inch plantable pot and is doing really well after a year in the ground. I did remove the pot before I planted, not a big fan of plantable pots.

Several people have asked me about the Winterberry shrubs in our garden. They are a deciduous holly, of which we have two varieties. This one is Ilex verticillata 'Red Sprite'. Once the leaves fall, the berries make quite a showing. Some years the berries last well into the winter, but this year the deer cleaned them off several weeks ago in just one night ..
Here is link to a picture of the shrub after the leaves have fallen:

Weigela (Caprifoliaceae)
The genus is named after C.E. von Weigel (1748-1831), a German botany Professor. It contains 10 species which come from Japan, China, Korea and Manchuria. In 1929 Bailey separated the plants which are now known as Weigela from the Diervilla group.
There are over 200 cultivar names recorded but probably less
Weigela National Collection - © Meg Jullien are in cultivation. Weigela florida was the first species to be introduced - by Robert Fortune in 1845 - and was widely cultivated in the mid 19th century. Other species followed. Since 1867 hybridisers have been working to produce good cultivars to meet the needs of gardeners. The 19th century cultivars were raised largely in France and Holland and are large shrubs with long arching growths. In contrast most of the modern cultivars have coloured foliage and a dwarf habit. They are all hardy, long flowered, easy going, trouble-free ornamental shrubs which make good garden plants.
