May have to rethink that. I love the form of the flower and know the H. paniculatas are a tough lot, withstanding winter's folly and droughty summers. Hope it's still there!

They ruin a perfectly good hydrangea, with these dumb names.

It is a lovely plant. I've admired Quickfire too. It's hard to have only one or two Hydrangeas. You start seeing them everywhere, and starting thinking how nice it would look in your garden.

I was also under the impression that hydrangeas always had round & pouffy flowerheads, but then discovered the elongated, airy Kyushu (as seen in my thumbnail pic). I've been so crazy about it, I added a similar Unique recently. Mine also get quite a bit of shade and are very happy, I've heard that when grown in full sun they need a ton of water. :)Rebecca @ In The Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17513002032328432666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7265980198981273900.post-84512738388304567212009-09-15T07:53:27.276-05:002009-09-15T07:53:27.276-05:00Kathleen, I am loving my new camera, but not using...Kathleen, I am loving my new camera, but not using as much as I'd like, yet.
