From the sources "Hydrangeas for American Gardens," by Michael A. Dirr (2004), and "Encyclopedia of Hydrangeas" C.J. and D.M. Van Gelderen (2004 - Timber Press):

Rich, dark green foliage on a compact shrub that grows about 5' high and wide. Not very cold hardy. Florets are rosy red or purple, violet or fuschia. Overcrowded heads, free flowering on terminal and side shoots. Entire, overlapping sepals. If picked pink, they'll dry lime green; picked blue, they'll turn blue green - easy to dry. Cultivar is the lacecap counterpart of 'Ami Pasquier'. Origin England; named and introduced by J. Russell, before 1956. RHS Award: AGM 1992. Dirr questions whether this cultivar might be the same as 'Mowe'.
