Plant description
'Roseum' is a woody, deciduous, self-clinging climber with heart-shaped leaves and flattened clusters of creamy-white flowers, surrounded by ovate, white bracts that mature to rosy pink as the flowering season progresses. Perfect for training against a wall or fence, it’s initially slow-growing but quickly catches up once established.

How to care for Hydrangea hydrangeoides var. hydrangeoides Roseum:
To avoid dry conditions, and to ensure good soil contact around the rootball, we advise planting climbers at least 30cm (12in), and preferably 45-60cm (18-24in) away from the base of a wall or fence. An even larger distance should be maintained when planting climbers beside an existing tree or shrub.
