Plants came well packaged, lively and on time. So far they are thriving in their new environment.

Healthy but a little disappointed
These are really healthy and I have no doubt that they will thrive, and they have grown in the 3 weeks I have had them. However I am not sure why they were cut back so extensively this time of the year before they were shipped. I understand maybe a small amount to fit in shipping box, but someone gave these a hard prune, which in a zone 6 should not be done in the fall. These bloom on new wood and may not bloom at all next year being that I don't think they will get enough growth before early spring to give them a trim for the new season.

      What I got is not what I see on the website pictures. A very small and young plant on an one gallon container. Don't buy online but go to the store!

        I bought 1 little lime hydrangea shrub online and while shopping at HD I found the shrubs in the garden center and decided to remove my dying evergreens , so I bought 2 more. Can't wait to see how they fill out next summer.

        love this plant
        Im trying to go monochromatic in my garden with various shafes of green and this little lime hydrangea is perfect. It’s a dwarf limelight so it fits perfectly in my garden but has already given so much as far as blooms and color. It was a little dry after being shipped but with a little love, water and sunlight, it has perked up quickly and it’s my favorite plant in my garden! It’s very healthy and im buying two more. Love this new hydrangea!

            I ordered 4 of the 1 gallon Little Lime Hydrangeas. Each arrived in their own box, carefully packaged, and in very good shape. The nursery from which they came sent daily text messages as to when they would arrive and options to change delivery if needed. A delivery window was given each time so I could be sure to take them in as soon as they arrive. Each plant was healthy and easily transplanted into the prepared bed on the side of my house. Although I planted these only 3 weeks ago I am surprised to see multiple buds on each branch with small flowers already showing. They should be in full bloom within a week. Very pleased with the purchase.

              I ordered 6 plants, in the 4.5 in. qt. pots on Friday Aug 3 and they arrived today, Aug 8 - only 5 days of being ordered (2 of which were weekend days). The plants are well packed, the soil is moist, and there are no broken branches or signs of stress from being shipped in this August heat to middle Tennessee. I'm looking forward to planting these and expect they will grow well since they arrived in such healthy condition. I've uploaded some pics of the plants and the packing box.

                I expected better
                Received my 6 plants Tuesday afternoon, they looked so pitiful. Most of the leaves had fallen off. Planted them Wednesday morning, Friday morning they dont look like they’re going to survive. Keeping my fingers crossed they make it.

                  Add some color..
                  This was the first time getting a plant through the mail. I was a bit nervous until I saw how it was shipped, as shown in the picture. It arrived in perfect condition. As you can see, it came as a small, non budding plant. After removing the plant and decided to put it in a location that receives equal amount of sun/shade throughout the day. Unfortunately, during that same time, the house was getting painted and through the carelessness of the painters, the plant was trampled. I have no doubt it would have grown like it should have. At this point I will replace it and move on.

                  Little Lime Hydrangea - 1 gal. Shrub
                  Little Lime shrub is a smaller form of 'Limelight'. Little Lime hydrangea will mature to about 4 feet tall, with a spread of 4 feet. This plant is sold online and arrives in protected packaging. The hydrangea arrived very healthy is ready for planting. Even though the plant is not yet blooming it should mature to have large lime green blooms that will turn bright pink later on in the season. Suggested planting in sun and hardiness zones are 3-9 so this plant should be great in SC. Suggested treatments for this species will be to continue the Proven Winners fertilizers and irrigate with WaterWise kit. Instructions also suggest applying a thick mulch around the root zone in winter to protect it in exposed locations or colder zones. I’m looking forward to all the large blooms.

                  Quality Shrub
                  This was my first experience buying plants online and I was skeptical. I was curious how it would ship and whether the quality would be good. The shrub was well packaged and arrived in perfect condition. It was nicely pruned and appears healthy. The soil was a bit dry but not concerningly so. I watered it and am ready to find the perfect spot to plant it.

                  Plants by Mail
                  I received this hydrangea for free in exchange for writing this review. If you don't have a good nursery nearby, this is a great way to get specialty plants. The plants come packaged well, and arrive in the condition of the place they left. In this case the plants shipped from Michigan and arrived in Seattle. Were a little ahead of Michigan right now, so the plants look a little delayed compared to everything else. Don't expect the plants to arrive in bloom like the marketing picture. Also beware of the weather conditions between your house and Michigan. I tried this once before and the plants froze and died. I haven't had these for a full season yet, so I can't comment on the quality of the blooms or the health of the plant.

                  Little Lime grows to be pretty big
                  I was very impressed with the packaging (see pictures). The tag indicates that this hydrangea will grow to be 3-5' x 3-5''. For "Little Lime" that is not very little. Likes full fun to partial sun. There seem to be really good varieties to chose from using this vendor. I ordered 4 plants. They all arrived in the same box.

                  One arrived as expected, the other one is doing ok but a lot smaller so they look a little awkward. Hopefully next year they will be the same size.
