New growth opens bright lemon-yellow and matures to lime green. Grower descriptions give lime green foliage year round, so the plant holds its colour through winter rather than turning red.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlant it in full sun to part shade in moist, well-drained soil. It reaches about 70 to 90 centimetres tall and wide, and keeps that compact shape without pruning. It is frost tolerant and copes with dry periods once established. Full sun keeps the foliage at its brightest. Shade turns it a darker green.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse it as a low informal hedge, an edge along a border, a block in a mass planting, or a single plant in a pot on a deck or patio. The lime foliage stands out against dark green plants. Summer Sunset shifts through bronze, orange and red, and Moon Bay turns red and burgundy in winter. Lemon Lime is the one of the three that stays lime and lemon all year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin:44px 0 16px;\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size:14px;font-weight:500;letter-spacing:1.5px;margin:0 0 8px;padding-top:32px;border-top:1px solid rgba(128,128,128,0.25);text-transform:uppercase;color:currentColor;\"\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 24px;color:currentColor;opacity:0.65;font-size:14px;font-style:italic;\"\u003eAbout Nandina 'Magical Lemon Lime'\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"border-bottom:1px solid rgba(128,128,128,0.25);padding:18px 0;\"\u003e\u003csummary style=\"font-weight:500;cursor:pointer;line-height:1.4;padding-right:12px;font-size:16px;color:currentColor;\"\u003eWhat is Nandina 'Magical Lemon Lime'?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin:14px 0 0;line-height:1.7;color:currentColor;opacity:0.85;\"\u003eMagical Lemon Lime is the trade name of 'Lemlim', a plant breeder's rights protected cultivar of Nandina domestica that originated in the USA. It is grown for its lemon and lime foliage and its compact size, rather than for flowers or fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"border-bottom:1px solid rgba(128,128,128,0.25);padding:18px 0;\"\u003e\u003csummary style=\"font-weight:500;cursor:pointer;line-height:1.4;padding-right:12px;font-size:16px;color:currentColor;\"\u003eHow big does it grow?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin:14px 0 0;line-height:1.7;color:currentColor;opacity:0.85;\"\u003eExpect about 70 to 90 centimetres tall and the same wide. Growth is slow, with 5 to 10 years to reach full size. The compact habit means it holds a neat shape without regular cutting back.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"border-bottom:1px solid rgba(128,128,128,0.25);padding:18px 0;\"\u003e\u003csummary style=\"font-weight:500;cursor:pointer;line-height:1.4;padding-right:12px;font-size:16px;color:currentColor;\"\u003eDoes it change colour in winter?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin:14px 0 0;line-height:1.7;color:currentColor;opacity:0.85;\"\u003eGrower descriptions give lime green foliage year round, with lemon-yellow new growth that fades to lime as it matures. It does not have the red winter phase of Summer Sunset or Moon Bay. Choose one of those if you want red winter colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"border-bottom:1px solid rgba(128,128,128,0.25);padding:18px 0;\"\u003e\u003csummary style=\"font-weight:500;cursor:pointer;line-height:1.4;padding-right:12px;font-size:16px;color:currentColor;\"\u003eDoes it flower?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin:14px 0 0;line-height:1.7;color:currentColor;opacity:0.85;\"\u003eSmall white flowers can appear in summer in conical sprays, though flowering may be sporadic. The flowers are a minor feature. The plant is grown for its foliage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"border-bottom:1px solid rgba(128,128,128,0.25);padding:18px 0;\"\u003e\u003csummary style=\"font-weight:500;cursor:pointer;line-height:1.4;padding-right:12px;font-size:16px;color:currentColor;\"\u003eIs it frost and drought tolerant?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin:14px 0 0;line-height:1.7;color:currentColor;opacity:0.85;\"\u003eIt is frost tolerant once established. Water regularly until the roots establish, then it copes with dry periods on medium water. Deep watering through long dry spells keeps the foliage dense and bright.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"border-bottom:1px solid rgba(128,128,128,0.25);padding:18px 0;\"\u003e\u003csummary style=\"font-weight:500;cursor:pointer;line-height:1.4;padding-right:12px;font-size:16px;color:currentColor;\"\u003eDoes it need pruning?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin:14px 0 0;line-height:1.7;color:currentColor;opacity:0.85;\"\u003eNo. The compact habit keeps its natural shape. Remove damaged or spent leaves as needed, and apply a slow-release fertiliser in spring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"border-bottom:1px solid rgba(128,128,128,0.25);padding:18px 0;\"\u003e\u003csummary style=\"font-weight:500;cursor:pointer;line-height:1.4;padding-right:12px;font-size:16px;color:currentColor;\"\u003eCan it grow in a pot?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin:14px 0 0;line-height:1.7;color:currentColor;opacity:0.85;\"\u003eYes. It suits decorative containers on decks and patios. Use a free-draining potting mix and check moisture often through summer, because pots dry out faster than garden beds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Evergreen Trees Direct","offers":[{"title":"30cm\/33cm","offer_id":68354071232711,"sku":"NANDOMMAGLEMLIM30CM\/33CM","price":170.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/4945\/4279\/files\/NANDINAMAGICALLEMONLIME30CM.png?v=1794452978","url":"https:\/\/www.evergreentrees.com.au\/products\/nandina-domestica-magical-lemon-lime-lemon-lime-heavenly-bamboo","provider":"Evergreen Trees Direct","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
