Quick Fire Hardy Hydrangea

Hydrangea paniculata 'Bulk'

A breakthrough plant that blooms more than a month earlier than other varieties. Can start blooming in May. Blooms change from white to a rich pinkish red before other varieties start to flower. This is a very hardy selection that blooms reliably every year, no matter where you live or how you prune.

Pruning: Deadhead faded flowers, cross-branches or dead stems in Late Autumn (after it hits dormancy & drops its leaves) or in Early Spring; do not prune otherwise.   

Paniculatas can be pruned into single-stem 'tree form'
