Hydrangea petiolaris, commonly known as Climbing Hydrangea, is a captivating and unique flowering vine that brings a touch of elegance to vertical spaces. Unlike typical hydrangeas, this variety doesn't grow as a shrub but rather as a climbing plant, adorning walls, fences, and trellises with its lush foliage and delicate blossoms.
As it matures, Hydrangea petiolaris can reach an impressive height of around 10 to 15 metres (30 to 50 feet). Its heart-shaped leaves create a rich green backdrop for the stunning clusters of creamy white flowers that emerge in late spring to early summer. These blooms add a sense of charm and tranquility to any outdoor area they grace.
The ability of Climbing Hydrangea to thrive in partial to full shade positions it as an excellent choice for shaded walls or areas with limited direct sunlight. Its growth rate can be somewhat slow initially, but once established, it rewards patient gardeners with a magnificent display. The sprawling growth habit and adhesive aerial roots enable it to cling to surfaces, creating a tapestry of greenery and blooms that evolve with the changing seasons.

We don't provide the current size of our plants in the product description because they are constantly growing and changing with the seasons. In addition, we may trim our plants to encourage new growth, so their size can vary from day to day. We believe this is an essential part of caring for our plants and keeping them healthy. *This also means the flower/fruit months shown are for reference only and we cannot guarantee plants are sent with flowers.
We recommend selecting a pot size that fits your needs and the planting location; a larger pot will usually contain a larger plant. We are happy to provide up to date sizing on request.
Please note that the photos we provide are mostly of the plant's final dimensions or of their unique points of interest, such as flowers, which may only appear at certain times of the growing season. Therefore, they are often not representative of the size or exact plant you will receive.
Here are our most common pot dimensions for your convenience. Availability according to listed quantity.

We send all of our plants using the Royal Mail 48 service for delivery. It's important to note that this service does not guarantee delivery within 48 hours of dispatch. Please be aware that this is not a tracked service, although we will provide you with a tracking number. The tracking number will only update with information once a delivery attempt has been made.
We understand that receiving your plants in a timely and healthy manner is important to you, and it's important to us too. We aim to dispatch every order within three working days and usually package plants every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, ready for dispatch the next day.
Each of our plants is packaged in a cardboard box and secured at one end to limit movement and try to ensure safe travel; however, it is still possible for some planting material to become loose in transit.
