Buy This If
You want blooms earlier.
You have room to let it grow.
You prefer reliable panicle hydrangeas.
Skip This If
You need a compact shrub.
Deer browse your hydrangeas hard.
You want blue flowers.
PGNE Report Card
Category
Grade
Why
Landscape Impact
A-
It earns attention because the flowers start early and shift color as the season moves along.
Growth Rate
A
It fills in faster than many hydrangeas, which helps if the bed looks bare now.
Maintenance
B+
It is straightforward to manage, but it still benefits from yearly pruning and cleanup.
Deer Resistance
C
Hydrangeas aren't deer-resistant, but they aren't a deer favorite either. Deer may nibble tender new growth and flower buds, so protect plants where deer pressure is heavy.
Small Space Fit
C
It can overpower narrow beds unless you are willing to prune and still allow some width.
Screening Value
B
It provides good seasonal mass, but it is not an evergreen privacy screen.
Our Experience
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend Quick Fire® Hydrangea when a customer wants dependable hydrangea bloom before the later panicle types take over. Give it room first; pruning should shape it, not constantly fight it.

Customers Usually Ask
Does it bloom on new wood?
Yes, so it is more reliable after New England winters than many bigleaf hydrangeas.
Can I keep it small?
Somewhat, but if size is the concern, choose Little Quick Fire® Hydrangea PW instead.
Will the flowers turn blue?
No, this is a panicle hydrangea with white flowers that age toward pink-red tones.
Why buy for fall color
See the actual color before you buy it
Foliage, berries and late bloom — all three seasons of interest
Fall planting means roots established before winter
Grown and hardened off for New England conditions
We grow and acclimate our Proven Winners stock right here in New Hampshire, so it's ready for New England winters before it ever leaves our nursery.
Showed up on time and planted it perfectly. I indicated a light we had to illuminate it and they placed it for optimal lighting. Worked fast and left a clean worksite. First rate!

They delivered three trees: a big linden, a big poplar and a little spice bush with install on the big trees. The install guys were great and professional and fast. All the trees looked good with minimal damage.

I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!

The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
