How Do You Grow A Climbing Hydrangea Vine?
A strong and vigorous vine, the Climbing Hydrangea vine will add character to any landscaping scheme. Growing the Climbing Hydrangea vine is moderately easy to get started and quite rewarding, though it may take your Hydrangea vine 6-10 years until it’s first bloom. Plant your Climbing Hydrangea vine in either full sun or shaded area. Being one of the few flowering vines that can tolerate shade, in hotter climates provide more shade. Choosing a Northern or Eastern side of a structure is best. Choose your area to grow your Hydrangea vine near a sturdy structure like a house, shed, fence, or trelace. In hotter climates more moisture and shade will be needed. Plant the Hydrangea vine in moist, well drained soil for optimal growth. Feed your Hydrangea vine very little during the first year of growth. After growth picks up fertilize with mild fertilizer once every month or two. Do not prune or cut back during the first year so a strong growth cycle will begin.
