Hydrangeas are a popular late summer flowering plant, and they are available as a trained up treeform.  The size of the head of the tree usually grows as large as the shrub would, and this can be a challenge for those wanting a lovely hydrangea tree with a small amount of space.  Little Lime, Firelight Tidbit (shown), Tiny Quick Fire and Little Lime Punch hydrangea trees will resolve these spatial issues, with heads that grow to less then 4 feet in diameter.  All have lovely blossoms that appear in mid summer in white that fade to different intensities of pink (they are listed here in order of 'deepness' of pink colour as they mature).  As with all hydrangeas, it's important to supply ample moisture to the roots in advance of high wind or high temperature conditions to ensure the very best longevity of blossoms.
