Limelight produces enormous cone-shaped flower clusters that open lime green in midsummer, fade to creamy white, and then blush pink and burgundy as autumn cools. Unlike bigleaf types, it blooms on new wood, so a hard winter or a heavy prune will not cost you a season of flowers. It is a reliable anchor for a mixed border, a flowering hedge, or a large container on a patio. This shrub ships well-branched and already established, so it should flower the first year. Give it sun, steady moisture, and a little room to grow.

Care tips

  • Plant in full sun to part shade, and water deeply two or three times a week during hot spells.
  • Prune in late winter or early spring to shape; flowers form on the current season's growth.
  • Mulch with 2 to 3 inches of compost or bark to hold moisture around the roots.
