The variety forms flat, lacecap-type corymbose inflorescences consisting of central fertile and marginal sterile flowers. The color of the sterile flowers is usually white or pale lilac, with the shade depending on soil pH: blue tones appear in acidic environments, while pink tones appear in alkaline ones.
The main feature is variegation: green leaves are decorated with porcelain-white or cream spots and margins. The shrub has a rounded, heavily branched shape, reaching a height and width of 0.6–1.5 m.
The plant is recommended for USDA hardiness zones 6–9; in colder regions, it requires covering to preserve flower buds. Flowering occurs on previous year's shoots, which requires pruning immediately after flowering ends.
