Little Quick Fire® Hydrangea - Shipped
Little Quick Fire Hydrangea is a compact deciduous shrub that blooms a month earlier than other hydrangeas. Its narrow foliage is dark green and have no fall color. The numerous airy panicles that open soft white in summer and darken to pink-red as they mature persist until frost and attract butterflies and pollinators. While it can tolerate full sun, its best blooms are in part sun and rich, moist well-drained acidic soils.
