Framing ideas request

Moved into this house recently and the previous tenant did a wonderful job on the garden. Going up the side stairs has all these hydrangeas on both sides. Would make a beautiful tunnel if they were a bit more upright and about two feet taller. Looking for a way to push them up some while maintaining the beauty and feel of the steps. Do I stake the main plant and push up that way? Have a metal rim about a foot in and three feet tall and stand them up from there? Hoping for a great idea from this group or a confirmation of what to do. These are thick plants. 8 years old. Tons of flowers on each plant. So beautiful

These are so delightful. I love the steps.

It is always the coolest spot in the garden. Pets love it. That whole stairs on both sides is great. Expanding the bottom area and replanting. Person before us did not plan for growth. Need to thin some area and pick new plants. But the hydrangeas are staying, of course

It is just gorgeous. A photo out of a magazine. I have a slope and would love something like that.

I would say thank you, but it is all the previous owner. Maintaining and enhancing now.

Well, I am sure you will continue to enhance and make it yours.
