3-Gallon Little Lime Punch Hydrangea is an upright reblooming deciduous shrub with a mounding habit and dense blooms. The short conical panicles open lime green and mature through a show of white, pink, and rich red all throughout summer, attracting butterflies. While can tolerate full sun, its best blooms are in part sun and rich, moist well-drained acidic soils.
