Clematis Care & Maintenance
Clematis are very easy to grow and long-lived ornamental vines!
Sun & Soil Needs: Prefers partial shade; tolerates some sunlight if roots are kept cool and moist. Requires well-draining soil; if planting in a container, ensure it has proper drainage holes.
Watering & Mulching: Keep soil evenly moist, especially in hot weather or containers. Mulch around the root zone to regulate temperature and retain moisture.
Pruning & Maintenance: Pruning Group 3 Clematis. Prune in early spring to about 6 inches above healthy buds to encourage new growth. After the first bloom, remove spent flowers to promote a second flush of blooms. Support vines with wide-mesh netting or a small trellis for best results.
Boulevard® Kitty™ Clematis thrives with minimal effort, making it an ideal choice for both experienced gardeners and beginners.
