Why plant Quick Fire® Hydrangea?
Ready...set...BLOOM! The Quick Fire® Hydrangea is one of the first hydrangeas to bloom in early summer, about one month before other varieties! By fall, the panicle flowers - which began as a pure white - begin to turn pink before transitioning to a stunning dark pink. These lace cap looking flowers are a fan favorite for pollinators, including bees, butterflies, and other insects. Not only does this fella bloom first, but it also has the longest blooming season out of any other hydrangeas, giving those beneficial insects time to work their magic! Oh, AND adds more time for you to enjoy the show as well!
How to use Quick Fire® Hydrangea in the landscape?
Create a colorful flowering hedge by planting a row of Quick Fires® or use them as a solid screen, considering they can grow to 8' tall and wide, these beauties will provide you with much desired screening! These plants are fun to play around with when creating mass plantings as all shapes and designs are possible. You could also plant them in containers to decorate the length of your patio or pool deck, or plant two on either side of your entryway for a stunning entry show!

How To Plant Quick Fire® Hydrangea
Quick Fire® Hydrangeas prefer to be planted in full sun locations with well-draining soil.
How To Water
The Quick Fire® Hydrangea will require a moderate amount of water on a regular basis, especially during spring growth. Provide ample water during periods of drought to keep them feeling happy and healthy!
How To Fertilize
Use our Elements Starter Plant Food to feed your Quick Fire® Hydrangea in early spring, as it breaks dormancy for the year.
How To Prune
As the Quick Fire® blooms on new wood, avoid late spring pruning at all costs. You'll only need a single prune in late winter or early spring for a quick clean up. Cut back to a healthy, thick bud. Thin out any spindly, old, broken or weak branches at the same time.
