Hydrangea 'Little Lime' (3 Gallon)

Hydrangea ‘Little Lime’ (3 Gallon)

A Classic Favorite, Perfectly Sized for the Home Garden

At Wright’s Market, we’re drawn to plants that feel like home—familiar, beautiful, and always ready to welcome you back to the garden. The ‘Little Lime’ Hydrangea is just that: a downsized version of the beloved ‘Limelight’ hydrangea, offering the same bold, reliable blooms in a more family-friendly size that fits right into your everyday landscape.

🌸 A Bloom with a Legacy

‘Little Lime’ comes from good stock. This compact variety is a proud cousin to the iconic ‘Limelight,’ known for its bright lime-green flowers and effortless charm. Introduced by Proven Winners, ‘Little Lime’ was cultivated to bring the bold beauty of larger hydrangeas into smaller spaces without compromising on flower power or vigor.

🌿 Where It Grows Best

Hardy in USDA zones 3 through 8, ‘Little Lime’ is a dependable grower from the cooler northern states to the warmer Southern gardens we know and love. It thrives in full sun to part shade and prefers moist, well-drained soil. Whether you're lining your front walkway, adding texture to your perennial beds, or filling a favorite planter by the porch, ‘Little Lime’ settles in easily and gets right to blooming.

📏 Size & Style

Reaching a mature size of 3 to 5 feet tall and wide, this hydrangea has a tidy, rounded shape that brings structure and softness all at once. In midsummer, it begins to bloom in dramatic fashion—big, cone-shaped clusters of lime-green flowers that gradually soften into cream and blush pink as the season transitions into fall.

🌼 Caring for Your ‘Little Lime’

• Water regularly, especially in the heat or during its first growing season.

• Prune in late winter or early spring—it blooms on new wood, so trimming won’t take away from the summer show.

• A light application of balanced fertilizer in spring supports strong growth and rich blooms.

• Add a layer of mulch around the base to help retain moisture and keep roots cool in the summer sun.

Why We Love It:
‘Little Lime’ feels like summer gatherings, lemonade on the porch, and flower arrangements fresh from the backyard. It’s a joyful, low-maintenance bloom that grows right alongside your family—beautiful, reliable, and full of grace.

Bring home a ‘Little Lime’ Hydrangea and add a bit of timeless beauty to your favorite outdoor spaces—because every garden deserves a little sweetness.
