- Hydrangea paniculata 'Limelight' is one of the most winter hardy hydrangeas. An important feature is that it flowers on new shoots so you better prune or trim it early in the season to achieve a denser plant and to avoid it grows to tall. If pruned it will grow to ca. 150 - 200cm
This is a panicle type hydrangea, not a mop-head one with big leaves and large flowers heads. Well, how to explain then that this new variety has even bigger flowers? Never mind, let’s just call them XXL size. The panicles are upto 30 cm long, fat blossoms of greenish-white colour when they come out in early August, changing to almost white after about 2-3 weeks and turning clear pink in September. The shade of pink is not a fading one, but fresh pink as if it was meant to be pink from the very beginning. Ovate, pointed leaves are dark green.
- Hydrangea paniculata 'Limelight' wordt, mits jaarlijks eind februari gesnoeid, 150 - 200cm hoog.
De plant bloeit langdurig, van juli t/m oktober met grote bloempluimen ( 25 – 30 cm groot) in een groen/witte kleur. De kleur is afhankelijk van de vruchtbaarheid van de grond. Hoe armer de grond is, hoe witter de bloem wordt. Voor de bijzondere, haast lichtgevende, groene kleur heb je dus een vruchtbare grond nodig.
Per tak groeit er één grote bloem. In september en oktober kleuren de bloemen roze. Het is mooi om in de winter de bloemen aan de struik te laten zitten. Ze kleuren bruin en zorgen vooral bij sneeuw voor een prachtig beeld in de tuin. Vogeltjes zijn ook altijd nog blij met oude bloempluimen, vanwege insecten die zich erin verschuilen.

This bloom of Hydrangea turned sideways... beautiful and delicate.
I gently brought it in.
The flower spoke to me of essence, the spine.
The blooms quite young.
With love to you and thank you for ALL your faves and comments, M, (* _ *)

The original deep red colour has gone from most of this plant, replaced now by a mixture of interesting colours as the old flowers dry out.
A few days ago on a dog walk we passed some little pots outside someone's wall - it was obvious they didn't want them so we picked them up - one is still in bud but they other is starting to flower! I hope it'll be okay despite the patches on the leaves.
A last view of Hydrangea Valley at Trebah Gardens, Cornwall. The plants in the background are Giant Gunnera: rhubarb-like plants, so huge you can walk under them!
