I am not sure what you mean by pink Pee Gee since all Pee Gees start pale green, turn white and then eventually turn pink. I imagine it would be OK if the container was large (half whiskey barrel or larger), in part shade to mostly shade, and you have it set up so that it gets frequent watering.

'Pee Gee' and 'Vanilla Strawberry' are two separate types of hydrangeas. Both are cultivars of H. paniculata but they are not the same and Vanilla Strawberry is not just a pink version of PeeGee (which stands for Hydrangea paniculata 'Grandiflora').
