FAQ's
Why is it called 'Limelight'?
The blooms open in a unique lime-green shade that brightens the landscape — hence the name 'Limelight.'
Does it change color during the season?
Yes! Flowers start lime green, then fade to white, blush pink, and deep rose as temperatures cool in fall.
When and how should I prune it?
Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. It blooms on new wood, so pruning encourages bigger blooms.
