Limelight Hydrangea #869120

Asked May 19, 2024, 3:28 PM EDT

Are Limelight hydrangeas invasive? I know they’re not native but I’ve always heard that they were sterile.

Expert Response

Hi,

Thank you for your question. Hydrangea paniculata is non native, originating from Asia, but is not invasive in our area. As you can see from the invasive map developed by University of Georgia and the National Park Service there are few places where it has been reported as aggressively growing in the US.
