    Hi All
    I have a climbing Hydrangea on a east facing wall that gets a lot of light and sun till about four in the afternoon.
    The problem i have is that it doesn't flower, its a prolific grower and i have to cut it back now and then to stop it getting out of control.
    Its been in the ground for three seasons now and im wondering whether to try something else as its a good spot in the garden
    Any idea's
    regards
    kevin

    Good evening Kevin and welcome to the site. I reckon you are cutting it at the wrong time of year. Let it flower for goodness sake THEN give it a GENTLE trim.:dbgrtmb:
