If you mean flann::hierarchicalClustering in OpenCV it is a hierarchical k-means tree. You need to create a matrix for centers. The centers.rows will be the upper limit of clusters which you need. This matrix will contain the obtained centers of clusters.

That is not bad the explanation of the differences between hierarchical and k-means clustering(page 46): http://www.lcb.uu.se/KBIB/materials/L1.pdf. And there is an rational thought about the using of hierarchical k-means (top-down hierarchical clustering using k-means iteratively) there. The advantage of one or the other method depends of the task's conditions.
