This is Hydrangea serrata 'Blue Deckle" It was planted 09/16/2007 - a little late going into the ground with winter coming on. It was completely covered with oak leaves in a wire cage for the winter. All the growth in the picture is new growth. None of the old wood survived. I've read that 'Blue Deckle' can be touchy. I have a feeling I'm going to find out just how touchy! It is a smaller hydrangea, only reaching 3 x 4 at maturity. If you're lucky enough to get it there.
