Hi, Cindy.
I like the serrata hydrangeas because they're usually a little smaller and have finer texture to leaves and flowers. They come in a whole host of cultivars like bigleaf hydrangea, including double-flowered varieties. The purple one pictured above is called Purple Tiers and the white one is Shirofugi.
I've got some single ones also, but they're not as far along, for some reason.
Here's a single one which starts out perfectly white, but the flowers last for weeks and weeks,
and as they age, they gradually turn pink then red on the outsides. This is from last summer.
