How far away from house do I plant a climber?
Comments (5)I'm in zone 6b and grow Sally over a small entrance to my kitchen garden. I has only gotten to about 8 or 9 feet in as many years, but it only gets about 3 or 4 hours of afternoon sun. It has wonderful bloom in the spring and a little latter on. My point is that it is not very vigorous with me and I'm not sure that it will reach the bedroom windows. Perhaps someone who grows it in more sun may have a comment as well. But then that asks the questions how much sun do you get on your front wall and how much black spot can you tolerate.

Comments (13)THANK YOU everyone for your all of your thoughtful insight. hcmcdole: I really like your idea of trying to grow them as a free form esapaillar. Or what if I just prune REALLY aggressively on the backside???... So here's what I'm thinking I'm going to do: I am going to prune REALLY aggressively on the backside of the plant to minimize it's growth and spread against the wall... Do you think this would work??? I don't mind how much if it wants to spread forward away from the wall or side ways in width. I would also like to minimize and maintain about a 5 foot height... That way it can overlap the bottom edge of my windows... And I can see the flowers even from the inside of the house. Is limelight the kind of hydrangea that will respond well to pruning and shaping during the growing season??? I know that I would probably make my life a whole lot easier if I just got the Little Lime variety... But it was nearly twice as much for a 2 gallon... Which isn't in my budget. What do you all think??? Am I going to be sorry years from now for even considering this idea and thinking I can keep Limelights growth maintained with pruning during the growing season??? I've never had much luck with hydrangeas in the past... So it's difficult for me to fathom a hydrangea that will grow 8 feet tall and grow so quickly....See Morehow far away can I plant my lapin cherry trees and still pollinate
Comments (14)Yes, I think you were misinformed. I have noticed trees at Home Depot with Spanish labeling and the HD plant staff is not known for their expertise. If Lapins were not self-fertile and did need a pollinator, it would not be another Lapins. You would need to have some other type of sweet cherry. The good news is that the one tree should produce nicely for you in a couple of seasons....See MoreHow far away from dwarf fruit trees should I set permanent stakes?
