Hydrangea Little Lime
In this Soto Masterclass Max explains how to look after Hydrangea Little Limes and the key characteristics of this flowering plant.
Watch this video to see how to prune the Hydrangea Little Lime with secateurs. Max suggests taking two thirds of the plant away in early spring so it can regenerate and grow strong flower heads in the spring and summer. Cover with peat free compost to nourish the plant and encourage strong growth. The guide also suggests what to do when yellow leaves appear on a hydrangea.
Max covers the ideal aspect for the Hydrangea Little Lime, or Hydrangea paniculata 'Little Lime' explaining they thrive in any light but for bigger flower heads place in direct sunlight. Soto encourage leaving the hydrangea’s large flower heads on to protect the plant and provide winter interest to your garden.
