Sweet Caroline Sweetheart Lime boasts brilliant lime green, heart-shaped leaves that bring a refreshing pop of color to any garden. This heat-tolerant beauty requires no deadheading, making it a low-maintenance addition to your landscape. It excels as a ground cover, spreading quickly to fill in spaces, and also works wonderfully as a foliage component in mixed plant combinations. However, due to its vigorous growth, it may sometimes overwhelm less vigorous plants, so regular maintenance is recommended. Sweet Caroline Sweetheart Lime is cultivated as an ornamental plant and is not intended for consumption.
