Hydrangea petiolaris, commonly known as the climbing hydrangea, is a vigorous, deciduous climber renowned for its ability to cover walls, fences, and large trees with ease. This self-clinging plant uses aerial roots to scale surfaces, creating a lush, green backdrop. In early to mid-summer, it produces large, fragrant lace-cap flowers, with a central cluster of tiny, creamy-white fertile flowers surrounded by showy, white sterile florets. These blooms are striking against the plant's dark green, heart-shaped leaves, which turn yellow in the autumn. Hydrangea petiolaris can reach heights of 30 to 50 feet, thriving in partial shade and well-drained, moist soils. Its ability to tolerate shade and add vertical interest, combined with its attractive flowers and foliage, makes it a popular choice for transforming blank walls or adding texture and depth to shaded areas of the garden.

Every plant is hand inspected before being shipped
Every plant is checked by our team before it leaves the nursery. Smaller plants are securely boxed, while larger specimens and pallet orders are shipped on our specialist plant courier network to protect foliage and rootballs in transit.
Most orders are dispatched within 7 working days. Larger specimens and rootballed plants may take a little longer, as we deliver these by pallet — we'll contact you to arrange a convenient delivery date. Full details are on our [Shipping Costs] page.
Let us know within 48 hours of delivery with a couple of photos and we'll put it right with a replacement or refund. We stand behind everything we grow and sell.
All our plants are nursery-fresh and healthy on dispatch and our shipping companies are hand selected for the care they take, so we guarantee the plant's health on delivery. Let us know immediately is soemthing is wrong and we will provide you support.
