Re: Climbing something or another

Hi,

I love my Climbing Hydrangea. Nothing stops or interferes with it. It grows
up a specially built fence and also grows along the ground quite strongly.
I generally keep that part of it pruned back as it is better in the upright
position.

My specially built fence is of lumber oneXone's about two inches apart
against a staircase of redwood. Quite strong. The plant gets very heavy but
it's worth it to see the clusters of white flowers in the late spring.

Regards.
