Please someone ID this Hydrangea for moi!

Hydrangea multicolor
A lovely hydrangea from a friend's garden. Kicking myself for not asking for cuttings (though it was getting late in the season). These are flowers all from the same plant! Starting out a pale blue, aging to pale green and then into a bright crimson red!!

Any thoughts on which one this might be. I'm assuming it's a serrata type??

  2. My guess is Hydrangea m. 'Izu No Hana' Hard to tell the color in your photo, I am assuming it's a pale blue. The leaves on these Japanese hybrids are narrower than the standard big leaf Hydrangeas. Mary Palmer
