Me too! 💚💚💚 It is one ☝️of my most valuable plant and probably the one that gets the most people stopped when they walk by our house. Glad you enjoyed it. 🙏🙏🙏

The QF hydrangeas is a gorgeous tree! 💚🙏🌸

Me too! 🤩🥰 Thank you!

Love your videos keep up I just found your channel and I’ll be watching all your videos

I was just watching your video with limelight and Bobo and I’m like you after the rain when my lime light sags I don’t like them I want them to look perfect lol

Thank you for understanding! 😊. It looks good as is but...😊...less floppy would be best?!

@@8bartlett I do realize this is over a year old and perhaps you've got the Limelight straightened out but in the event you do not you could cut them back about 1/ or less before fall and then again in late winter or early spring following. This should strengthen your stems nicely.

Nice to have a fellow gardener in the same zone (and Toronto)! Welcome Eileen! 🙏💕

QF is stunning 🤩 thank you Judith! 🙏💚🪴

Thanks for visiting

You are so welcome! QF is gorgeous plant! Enjoy! 🙏💚🪴

My quickfire, though I bought a big one, only had a few blooms the first year but this year the second it's so covered in blooms you can hardly see the leaves.

Thank you so much R Nguyen! I will soon be “fertilizing” my hydrangeas so hopefully I will remember to answer your questions in the next video! Happy gardening! 💚🪴

Hi Polly, Mine is about 3-4 ft wide and 5+ ft tall. It is about 6 years old. I get a lot of winter kill and the tree doesn’t get a chance to grow to its max 6-8 ft size.

Yes - they bloom on new growth! 🙏💚🪴

Thank you Navya! 💚🙏💚 In my opinion, the blooms on the Quick Fire is “nicer” than the Little Quick Fire (LQF)….and they both have similar beautiful fall colours and early bloom time; however, but if the smaller size is what you prefer, definitely go with the LQF. Happy gardening

@@TracysHomeGarden Thank you! Exactly my thought. This is why i love your videos. You have thorough knowledge.

It’s Anna Magic Ball Arborvitaes Wei. 💚🪴💚

You’ll love it Meg! I got this one as a tree but I have many other hydrangeas that I trained into trees in my garden: many Bobo trees, two Vanilla strawberry trees, two Limelight, etc. Happy gardening! 💚💚💚

@@TracysHomeGarden thank you! So do you think I could train the quick fire panicle into a tree eventually? Mine's still in the pot from the nursery it's about 1.5 feet tall no blooms, just foliage. Would it hurt it, or should I wait, do you think?

You can plant it in the ground, let it grow and send out a few long stems and divide/train it into a tree next spring. I have many videos on this on my channel.

@@TracysHomeGarden will watch. Thank you!

Hi Lorraine, Thank you so kindly for your sweet comment. I'm so thankful and privileged - to be able to share one of the things that is so dear to me - gardening - with you and everyone else on KZfaq. Going through this lockdown (since March of 2020) has not been easy on many people so I'm so glad that, like me, you enjoy and find refuge in our love for plants and gardening. One positive thing I take away from this pandemic is - to slow down and enjoy many simple things we used to take advantage of - including gardening and plants. Just yesterday while having an easy morning meal with my children in the back garden - my 10 year old daughter realized the "scent" of the roses that are currently in bloom! She went over to take a waft and claimed that she has not realized until now that the roses smell so good! Before covid, we were always busy and on-the-go...over scheduling the children. We rarely had a Saturday morning where we were really enjoying our morning meal together as the children always had this lesson or practice. Thank you again for watching and enjoy the QF standard hydrangeas in your front garden! ps. When the Quick Fire is in bloom many people say they purposely walk by my garden to view the hydrangea tree.

How to Prune Panicle Hydrangea Trees (Newly Trained & Mature Hydrangeas) - Early April 2022 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/g8uUlMR0v7WoaJs.html I have the link on how I prune all the hydrangeas trees in my garden. Hope that helps. 💚🙏💚

Yes, they are in full sun until 5 pm. 💚

No, it was created from a bush. I have the video link here if you are interested: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mq-GmK9zltLPn4E.html

@@TracysHomeGarden how long do you wait before you start to train them into a tree?

I usually like to do this as soon as I find a nice long & straight stem to work with. This process may take up to 3+ years to start looking “bushy” so the sooner you able the better.

@@TracysHomeGarden i want the single stem to be atleast 3 feet long before it branches out..should i wait till it gets 3 feet tall first and then train it into a tree?

Yes, do wait for a stem that tall to start in order to get the trunk of the tree to be as tall as possible.
