Hydrangea Twist-N-Shout

Hydrangea Twist-N-Shout

Hydrangea Twist-N-Shout is a stunning reblooming lacecap hydrangea that combines elegant beauty with reliable performance from late spring through fall. As the first reblooming lacecap from the Endless Summer series, it features delicate, star-like flowers in lacy clusters, blooming pink in alkaline soils and a rich periwinkle-blue in acidic conditions. Deep red stems and burgundy fall foliage add even more visual interest, offering multi-season appeal.

This compact, upright shrub typically reaches 3–5 feet in both height and spread, making it a great fit for foundation plantings, borders, or mixed beds. Its airy flower heads attract pollinators like honey bees and butterflies, while the strong stems hold blooms upright without flopping, even after summer storms. Twist-N-Shout is also notable for blooming on both old and new wood, ensuring a long season of floral display, even after a tough winter or late pruning.

Adaptable and cold-hardy down to Zone 4, Twist-N-Shout® performs best in rich, well-drained soils with consistent moisture. Its tolerance of part shade makes it especially useful in woodland borders or dappled light gardens, where many other flowering shrubs may struggle. Whether planted as a showpiece or massed for impact, this hydrangea delivers elegance, color, and dependable blooms season after season.

Care Instructions:

Site Selection: Choose a location with morning sun and afternoon shade.

Watering: Keep soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, especially during the first growing season. Water deeply during dry spells and mulch around the base to retain moisture and regulate soil temperature.

Pruning: Minimal pruning is needed. Remove dead or damaged stems in early spring. Since it blooms on both old and new wood, avoid heavy pruning to ensure continuous flowering.

Fertilization: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring. To enhance blue tones, use a soil acidifier or aluminum sulfate; for pink blooms, lime may be added to raise soil pH.

Pest and Disease Control: Generally pest and disease resistant. Proper spacing and airflow help prevent most issues.
