Default Neighbor's Hydrangea

I agree. We need more Hydrangeas in our garden.

But they take up so much room ... I'd rather my neighbour grew them and
the flowers hung over the boundary into my garden :-)

They can be hard pruned in the late spring to keep them nice and compact.
You then get bigger/better flowers too.
A mop headed pink one of ours is only 3ft high max each year because I prune
it back to about 18 inches or less.
