Quick Fire is a Hydrangea breakthrough, in that it blooms months earlier than older varieties, extending the bloom time and beauty from early summer thru autumn. Not only does this variety bloom early, its blooms change from white to a rich pinkish-red before other varieties even start to flower. A remarkable plant that is changing the way we garden. This is a very hardy selection that blooms reliably every year, no matter where you live or how you prune. Absolutely no fussing or guessing like with other Hydrangea.   Quick Fire is a blaze of color.
