Planting & Care

Where to Plant

  • Sunlight: Aim for a minimum of six hours of direct sunlight daily for the best flower production and color intensity. While partial shade is tolerated, you will see a tradeoff with fewer blooms. Always remember the classic advice: keep the plant's roots cool and shaded, which you can achieve with a layer of mulch or a nearby low-growing plant.
  • Soil: Clematis needs rich, well-draining soil that holds moisture but never gets soggy. If you have heavy clay, amend the entire planting area generously with compost and grit to improve drainage. For sandy soil, incorporate well-rotted leaf mold or manure to boost moisture retention, ensuring the crown is planted slightly below the soil line.

Watering Requirements

During the first season, deep watering two or three times a week is essential for establishment and deep root growth. Once mature, your Clematis requires consistent moisture, especially during peak summer or dry spells, so check the soil 6 inches down before watering. Inconsistent watering will quickly cause visible leaf stress, resulting in smaller bloom size and fewer flowers overall.

Pruning Tips

This variety is a Group 2 clematis, meaning it blooms on both old and new wood, and requires only light attention. In late winter or early spring, before active growth begins, remove any weak or dead wood to a healthy pair of buds, focusing on removing the top third to shape the vine. A light trim right after the first major bloom cycle encourages a second, later flush of flowers on the new growth.

Fertilizer Needs

Apply a high-quality, balanced, slow-release granular fertilizer or a specialty rose/tomato food in early spring as new growth emerges. Clematis are heavy feeders and benefit from this annual boost to support their extensive blooming period. Avoid applying high-nitrogen fertilizers late in the summer, as this encourages soft, leafy growth that is vulnerable to frost damage instead of hardening off properly for the winter.
