cross of an unnamed seedling (H. pycnophylla x H. 'Harvest Dandy')
and an unnamed seedling (H. 'Blue Arrow' × H. 'Sea Fire'). A medium size (13 inches tall
by about 40 inches wide), semi-upright plant, it has slightly rippled,
blue-green foliage and lavender flowers from late July into August.
It has good leaf substance.
