I D please

This is a lace cap that changes color from blue to pink and then red.I bought it from a local nursery near Boone NC.I never saw it in bloom so I was both surprised and pleased when I saw it 2 weeks ago.

Another picture from my mountain garden.This time a Pee Gee.it will turn pinkish as the weather grows colder.

Wrong picture! That is a sour wood tree

and finally Nikko Blue

Wish i could ID your lacecap. It's all so lovely, anyway! Great photos. no wonder you like that place.

Hi there,

It looks like Hydrangea serrata 'Beni gaku'. The leaves are sure a serrata. You might find it in this link again.
If this not it, it could be serrata 'Kurenai'.
