In May and June the vine produces abundant, large, 7 to 8-inch diameter lacecap pink flowers that surround a rounded cluster of tiny white flower buds. The buds and blooms appear at the ends of branches that can extend up to 3 feet from the tree trunk or other supporting structure. The dried flower clusters and reddish brown peeling bark are attractive in winter. No attachments are necessary for this vine to climb as it naturally clings to bark, wood, brick and other surfaces using its own aerial roots, which won't harm your walls or trees. When not in flower the pretty, the heart-shaped leaves make this wonderful climbing vine a highly attractive covering for a large tree trunk, wall or fence. In our gardens, we have one that has climbed over 30 feet high up the trunk of a large 70 year old pecan tree. Here in Georgia USDA Zone 8a and further south this one prefers some afternoon shade or filtered sun but will grow in full sun or part shade in USDA Zones 4 through 7. Landscape & Garden Uses Climbing up to 30 feet or more in height, the Rose Sensation Climbing Hydrangea provides wonderful texture and color as a vertical accent on home foundation or other walls, trellises, arbors, pergolas, and tree trunks. A fine addition to Hydrangea gardens, white gardens, fragrance gardens and cottage gardens. Suggested Spacing: 4 feet apart to cover walls or fences. One plant is usually sufficient to cover a tree trunk Growing Preferences Climbing Hydrangea is easy to grow.
