Not from your part of the country so things may vary but, #8 looks a lot like a bay laurel type of bush - not very exciting. I forget what the healthy one in #9 is called, but it should be smothered in tiny pink or white flowers in early spring. Bees love it. Water should help the purple guy. #10 looks like some vinca creeping in there. Don't know about MD, but in the south it's a curse and takes over everything, so you might want to abate it now. On the right in #11 looks like a relative of a marguerite daisy - should have tiny yellow daisy like flowers on it soon.
Hydrangeas are my favorite too. Grew like mad in Cali, but not so much here in CO.
Enjoy your surprises!!!
