Green bush with multiple tiny GREEN buds?

13 years ago

Sorry I don't have a pic right now, but we bought a house with large bush cover around most of the fence. It has green leaves and skinny stems with tiny green buds on the end of those stems. (This is June in OK.) Can someone pls identify?

Without a photo, we need the information a photo would supply. This is only the beginning:

Do the bushes form a hedge along the fence, or are they intermittent?

How tall is one of the bushes (roughly?)? How wide? Does it look like they've been pruned so that the top or edges are fairly flat?

What shape are the leaves? What size in inches? Are the edges toothed? How many teeth per inch? Dark green? Light green? Are the undersides a different color, and if so, what is it? Are the leaves shiny? Hairy? Stiff?

Are the leaves attached opposite or alternate along a stem?

How many buds are on the end of each stem (roughly)?

My first thoughts are that it is a climbing Hydrangea, H. petiolaris
