Planting & Care Instructions

Where to Plant

  • Sunlight: For the best color intensity, provide at least 6 hours of direct sun. While it can handle partial shade, too much shade will lead to fewer of those stunning red blooms and leggier growth.
  • Soil: This vine prefers "cool feet and a warm head," so use well draining soil enriched with compost. If you have heavy clay, plant it in a slight mound or add organic matter to ensure the roots do not sit in stagnant water.

Watering Requirements

During the first year, water your Rebecca™ Clematis twice a week to ensure the root system anchors deeply. Once established, it is relatively drought tolerant, but inconsistent moisture during hot spells can cause the flowers to wilt or the foliage to brown at the edges. Aim for deep, infrequent soakings at the base of the plant rather than light sprinkles that only wet the surface.

Pruning Tips

This variety belongs to Pruning Group 2, meaning it produces its largest flowers on stems from the previous year. In early spring, simply remove dead or weak stems and cut the remaining healthy buds back to about 12 inches from the ground to encourage a flush of new growth. Think of it like a light thinning that prevents the vine from becoming a tangled mess while maximizing the bloom surface area.

Fertilizer Needs

Apply a balanced, slow release fertilizer like a 10-10-10 blend in early spring as new growth appears. Avoid using high nitrogen fertilizers late in the summer because this forces tender new growth that will not have time to harden off before the first frost. Proper feeding ensures the plant has the energy to produce that signature second flush of blooms in late summer.
