Why doesnt my climbing hydrangea flower?
A couple of thoughts. Climbing hydrangea vines are notoriously slow to establish. I wouldn’t give up on it yet. Ours is going into its fourth year. It actually had a couple of flowers the first year and nothing since. Our neighbour’s didn’t flower until about year four. They need a cold winter to create flower buds. If you live in zone 7 or above, it could be problematic. They want a very fertile soil. Lots of compost or other organic fertilizer every spring may help. Hang in there. They’re attractive vines, even without the flowers.
