How to Care
- Water newly-planted clematis regularly during periods of dry weather in the first few seasons after planting. Once established, plants shouldnt need regular watering, unless growing on a very free-draining soil or during prolonged hot, dry spells.
- Feed those growing in the ground each year, in late winter or early spring. Apply a flower-encouraging potassium-rich fertiliser, like Vitax Q4 or rose fertiliser, around the base of the plant according to manufacturers instructions
- Mulch immediately afterwards with organic matter, like well-rotted manure, leaf mould or garden compost, to improve the soil and help conserve moisture
- Feed container-grown clematis monthly during the spring and summer using a general-purpose liquid fertiliser.
- Regular pruning encourages strong, healthy growth, improves flowering and keeps clematis plants in check. Left unpruned, these climbers tend to form a mass of tangled stems with bare bases and flowers well above eye level, so although it can be a time-consuming task, it is well worth the effort.
- Propagate by layering or semi-hardwood cuttings
