I love hydrangea!!
Large clusters of dazzling blooms are very showy. Alkeline soil will produce pink blooms, more acidic soil will produce blue blooms.
Merritt's Supreme The flower color of this variety sets it apart from others

I suppose the PH of the soil here makes the blooms more purple than pink. I still think it's lovely.
