Best Wishes Brian.

I thought that all climbing hydrangeas (hydrangea petiolaris) had
flowers like those of H. macrophylla? What am i missing?
And when you say they are not worth the time i disagree, i think they
are lovely to look at as well as having a fantastic scent.

Have you got Hydrangea seemannii, as well? It's self clinging, too but is
evergreen and needs some shelter and a north wall.
