I accepted the suggestion, but the ID request doesn't clear...

Thomas, please can you go through your spottings & update the ones that other users have taken the time to identify for you with the correct scientific names & a reference link so that they can be removed from the "unknowns" list. Please also ensure that you provide both a scientific name & a reference link for any suggestions you make on other users' spottings. We don't accept suggestions with just a common name, though you are welcome to suggest this in the comments section as a hint so that the user can narrow their search. Thanks.

Not sure about "lacecap". There's too many white flowers around the outside edge.
Thomas L Souren
On second thought, it may be Hydrangea serrata, "Mountian Hydrangea"

I thought so, too. The entire plant is very much like Hydrangea with the exception of the flowers.

the leaves resembles hygrandea but I am not sure
