A cross of
H. 'Sieboldiana'
x H. 'Tokudama', this cultivar was registered in 1990 by
Clarence Soules. It forms a
large size mound about 2 feet tall by 5 feet
wide. The very pale lavender flowers bloom from late June into
July. According to
The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "...shows many similarities to H. 'Elegans'
but the foliage tends to be smaller, the flowers are more
lavender, and the flowering period is a few weeks later."
