I agree, they’re beautiful and so easy to grow!

[@jamesray2393]

I could listen to Jenn all day what a delightful person. I love the beautiful nursery. I'll go there again and again

[@deborahramsey496]

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Deborah Ramsey happy to help!

Oooo weee!!!!!! I caught that shout out!!! Thanks!......Ima share your channel on facebook!!!!!

[@marilynbaldwin2934]

I have a limelight hydrangea and are very lovely in the changing colors!

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

It’s such a fantastic plant!

[@themontephone875]

Hmmm screen...I can visualize it! I was just window shopping for these and didn’t have enough knowledge until KZbin brought the vid to me... I learned something.

[@fortheearth]

Great video, thanks.

[@TravelAgentCale]

Wow Thank you for sharing!

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Plumeria Place happy to help 😊. Thanks for watching!

[@mayfieldmanor5344]

They are beautiful! I also love Annabelle Hydrangea since they flower a little earlier in our Canadian climate.

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Annabelles are such a classic and you can’t go wrong with the classics ♥️

[@logansimpson305]

Love the video from your favorite nephew

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Thanks buddy! And shhhh, we can't let the other boys know you're actually our favorite.

[@imahappygal1]

Great information! Thanks for sharing!😁

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Absolutely! They're a great plant!

[@khetong6226]

I was looking at those trellises just the other day and thought to myself that I’ll bet there’s a great way to make your own trellis

[@maranathabranton1786]

I’ve been wanting to incorporate Hydrangeas in my yard for years. I can’t seem to do so,because of the past experiences I’ve had with them.(zone 8b,(clay soil) rainy summers/hot humid weather.After watch this video I sparked an interest and hope to gain courage to try once again. I have two in HUGE pots on my porch and they do well,but desire them everywhere in my landscaping.I adore them.Thanks for the gardening tips.

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

You’re so welcome! I would also encourage you to try ‘White Wedding’ by Southern Living. They are another fantastic hydrangea that can handle our heat & humidity.

[@ireneclark1817]

Stunning👌👌👌

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Thank you!

[@sammysworld5485]

Hi Jenny. I grow two in containers & yes for sure the more sun the better. Here in my zone 7b if they get less then 6 they will not thrive. I also love pinky winky hydrangea.

[@diannenaworensky6698]

I love all Hydrangeas, but I have to admit that Limelight is one of my favorites. Proven Winners also has the Let's Dance Diva which I have never seen in person (only pictures). How is the selection at your store ???

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

We have an extensive collection of PW hydrangeas. I planted ‘Diva’ in my garden last year and she already has buds on her - I’m so excited! A few of my other favorites are Firelight, Blue Jangles, and Little Quick Fire.

[@dav1979brar]

Please let’s us know which months are best for fertilizing these beautiful plants ? Thank you love your channel ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🇨🇦

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

End of winter, beginning of spring as they begin to break dormancy

[@barbaragalliera9846]

This is my second year April in New York was afraid to prune and cut back 1/3 but I did noe they look so small. I have trees and strawberry vanilla (plus a lot of other Hydrangeas) there cover with leaves but how long does it take (for the trees to start getting new branches?

[@SandraDee590]

I have this growing in my front yard, they were already here from the previous owner of my house. Can these be propagated? If so how? I would like it in my backyard.

[@MsCurliegirlie]

I don’t know if you will respond because this is an older video. I just bought a tree and live in the middle of Kansas . The spot that I really want to put it is more like partial shade. I haven’t planted it yet. It’s so beautiful and was 125.00 so I don’t want to ruin it. What would you recommend.? Thank you!

[@colormile-vid8888]

This is the perfect size tree to replace the one that was cut down in our backyard. I just want a tall enough tree to have some coverage from our back door neighbors. Will this thrive in CO? I live in zone 5b area. During winter time, temperature here do go down to single digit. Once in while even below 0. Will it survive then? I would love to have 4 or 5 of them lined up by the fence and maybe 1 or 2 somewhere in the front yard as well. Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

They should do just fine for you because they are hardy in zones 3-9, and since you’re a 5b you’ve got plenty of wiggle room. I say go for it!

[@themontephone875]

No PW...so do I use same standards/specs? (Edit replaced best word.)

[@themontephone875]

! Pink! I hope I find (no PW)

[@themontephone875]

? What is retail price range for each of those products?

[@Spartacus516]

You mentioned in your video that the hydrangea bush was in a 3 gallon container. Could you please tell me what size container the hydrangea tree is in?

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

It is a 15 gallon

[@Dani-gv5nb]

Limelight and Phantom what Is the different?

[@ivytippit6181]

Will you put these on your website

[@ferchosgirl]

I treated myself to one and visit her everyday to water and watch over her 😀

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

You are going to LOVE her!

[@lutherespinosa9317]

We love ours but is getting dry so fast, we just got it around a month ago and I’m not sure why maybe whether is so hot here, it I water it every other day, maybe need more water, any advice or it needs vitamins

[@ferchosgirl]

@@lutherespinosa9317 she’s young and newly planted, give her water everyday especially if it’s 🥵 🙂 mine was planted last year and looked raggedy but this year she is glorious

[@lutherespinosa9317]

@@ferchosgirl thank you so much one more question, I have a light I put on the ground to make it look great at nights do you think it is ok ? Plant does like it or it is so young for that and I have to wait four it to be a bit stronger, thank you

[@themontephone875]

? Have Better Home a Garden Limelight and White Wedding-will it turn pink?

[@PurpleFlower84]

Have you ever done a limelight hydrangea tree 😃

[@behonest9250]

I have a limelight. I love it. How about Vanilla Strawberry?

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Yes! Another fantastic hydrangea❣️

[@behonest9250]

Gardening with Creekside is it similar and as good as limelight. My limelight is too big and is in a nice place to expand. I need slightly smaller one ? What do you recommend?

[@themontephone875]

? How close to house if you have allergy to blooms??

[@Schw1947]

I planted mine a few weeks ago and the leaves are turning yellow. What am I doing wrong? I live in NW Indiana how many times a week would u suggest I water them? Thank you!

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

It sounds like a water issue, either too much or too little. I know that sounds ambiguous but it’s hard for me to say exactly. How much you need to water depends on so many things - air temperature, rain levels, type of soil, etc. As a general rule of thumb, you want your soil moist. Not soaking wet and not bone dry. Also, how big was the hydrangea when you planted it? Typically a 3 gallon shrub will need a gallon of water per watering. Hope this helps some!

[@Schw1947]

@@GardeningwithCreekside it was a three gallon! Thank you so much

[@kristahensley5999]

I just planted mine in 7b in a container and so excited to finally have one but..my leaves are doing the same. It gets full aun until about 130 then indirect sun late in the evening. I water daily and terrified of losing this beauty!

[@Sunshine-rc7ow]

How tall and wide does the tree form grow

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

The same as a traditional Limelight, 6-8’

[@donnaiampaglia283]

How do you prune that, please

[@tina8796]

sorry to correct you but they start out lime colored, then lime / white, then all white and then the pink color.

[@lynncase8758]

I have a limelight tree. What do you recommend to keep the limbs from sagging from the weight of the bloom?

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Lynn Case Hi Lynn, I would start with regular pruning in February cutting back no more than 1/3 back. Sometimes during the growing season I cut excessive bending flowers off.

[@joseandligiasoto9877]

Where did you get that tree? It’s beautiful.

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

We sell them at our nursery 😁

[@ethelrizarri2614]

Where are you

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Dallas, NC

[@Worldfriends218]

good but the sound needs to be up hire hen doing new clips

[@GardeningwithCreekside]

Early video with different mic system, all that is corrected a year ago.

[@Rougebasque]

When you say that little lime is exactly the same than limelight, I don't agree. Very disappointed in my three little lime that don't turn white but stay lime and then pinkish brown. In the video you can notice the difference. Thanks anyway.
