I have a large hydrangea that is almost to my gutters, apart from blocking my gutters can it damage masonry?
No, this plant will not harm masonry, but it may leave a sticky residue.
This article will help you.
grows? I am hoping I can plant at the bottom of the slope without support.
Yes, climbing hydrangea should grow along a rocky slope. They climb by aerial roots, that cling to rough surfaces. It does prefer a rich, moist soil, so add amendments to your soil at the base if it needs it. And they can be slow to flower, so patience is needed.

I have a climbing hydrangea planted on a fence and although the leaves are plentiful and very healthy, the flower heads develop a pathetic ring of flowers all round the edge but nothing in the middle
It is similar to the actual flower which resembles a lacecap hydrangeas flower.
This is a common and quite complex issue. Normally, with time it resolves itself, as it is usually due to young age of a plant. This article will offer more insight: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/vines/climbing-hydrangea/climbing-hydrangea-wont-bloom.htm
I planted two climbing hydrangea last September and they were both doing well until two weeks ago when one started turning yellow. Please What is the problem and what can I do to correct it? Thank yoy
According to the second article below, their leaves turn yellow in the fall, before dropping. If you think it is something else, check for cultural problems like compacted soil, chlorosis of leaves, and inspect underside of leaves for insects.

Hi, I'm looking for evergreen climbing hydrangea for purchase. I've only seen 2 types online, Hydrangea seemanii and Taiping Shan, but I'm having trouble finding where to purchase them online. I'm in zone 7 and these would be an excellent addition to our gardens. Can you advise? Thanks! Kim
We don't recommend retailers, but you can ask at your local garden centers or continue searching online. I do see it available when I search online.
Is there such a thing? Living in Central Texas. Looking for a vine that can grow in shade. It will not even get partial sun.
If you are up for a challenge, try climbing hydrangea vine. I saw one once and it was spectacular. They can be slow to establish and bloom, but once you have it going just be sure to keep the soil moist. Dutchman's pipe grows in shade, but it needs to be away from other plants. It suckers underground and can strangle nearby plants. Here is more:

Situated on North facing wall.
They take several years to establish. Each year you should get more and more blooms. Incorporating compost into the soil may help. Here are care tips:
