Positive lmelling On Dec 2, 2004, lmelling from Ithaca, NY (Zone 5b) wrote:

According to the authors of "Encyclopedia of Hydrangeas" (2004 - Timber Press), " A medium sized shrub up to 5'. The large, flattend corymbs have good blue sepals. On alkaline soil, however, they become muddy purplish. Flowering time is from August to September. Rare in the trade. The name is almost always wrongly spelled. Bred by F. Matthes, Germany, in 1926."

No hardiness zone noted.
