Dwarf forms?? How small do these stay? Any favorites you might recommend?

Hello Donna,
I remain most impressed with my oak leaf hydrangea. Probably about
5 years old now. Bloomed from the first year. This is truly a 4 season
shrub that I tread like a large perennial. In the winter it is all
texture and various shades of cinnamon. Spring the new foliage and
large white blooms that go so well with the late spring ephemerals and
early summer perennials. Blooms age all through the summer from white
to pink to tan and finally to cinnamon as fall arrives and the foliage
turns that deep lustrous burgundy.
Can't imagine my garden without it now and began adding more
cultivars last spring. Very interested in the dwarf forms.

And to keep it on topic, wondering what 'special can't
live without' plant everyone is looking for this
growing season.
And since my garden is still in winter stage and
planning for the season, also wondering what was the
most impressive plant you had last season....
