Family Hydrangeaceae

Hydrangea macrophylla ‘Tilt-A-Swirl’ is a lacecap shrub hydrangea, prized for its reblooming flowers and its elegant yet natural appearance. Part of the Endless Summer series, it stands out with its flat inflorescences composed of a heart of fertile flowers surrounded by delicately wavy decorative florets, whose color varies from pink to blue depending on the soil's acidity. Its overall habit is upright, flexible, and well-balanced, with a slightly airy silhouette that perfectly integrates into landscape beds, naturalistic gardens, and as a specimen plant. The broad, healthy, dark green deciduous foliage visually supports the prolonged flowering throughout the summer. ‘Tilt-A-Swirl’ blooms on both old wood and new wood, offering excellent floral reliability even after harsh winters. Its ornamental and ecological interest makes it a wise choice for partial shade gardens.
