In "Hydrangeas for American Gardens," by Michael A. Dirr (2004), it says that flowers are bright red in alkaline, purple in acid soil. It has small flower heads, but they can reach 5" in diameter. The sepals are elongated and separated from each other. This is a dwarf shrub from 18" to 3' but rarely over 20" high, light green leaves. Can contract heavy leaf spot. No hardiness zone given.
