    Hydrangea serrata Tiny Tuff Stuff™ 'MAKD' (PP24842, 2014) developed by T.D. Wood from Spring Meadow Nursery, Inc (Grand Haven, MI, US). Patent is based on its low growing, mounding plant habit; strong and sturdy stems; dark green leaves; lacecap-type inflorescences with double violet sterile flowers; remontant flowering habit; and good garden performance. Patent claims are similar to most recent hydrangea patent applications. An open-pollination of Hydrangea serrata 'Maiko'.
