Hydrangea paniculata 'Quick Fire'
'Quick Fire' is a show-stealing panicle hydrangea known for blooming earlier than others—often by several weeks! This fast-growing shrub displays upright, cone-shaped clusters of white flowers that transform into deep pink and red tones as summer fades into fall.
Perfect for colder climates and tolerant of full sun, it provides dramatic color progression, excellent as a hedge, border, or standalone accent. Its woody stems hold the blooms upright without flopping, even in windy conditions.
