Garden and Landscape Applications

Crystal Fountain™ Clematis is perfect for adding vertical interest to your garden. Train it to climb trellises, arbors, or fences, where its stunning blooms can be showcased.

Its compact size and vertical growth make Crystal Fountain™ suitable for small gardens or patios, and it thrives in containers, allowing you to enjoy its beauty even in limited spaces.

Pair it with small shrubs or perennials with golden foliage to create a striking contrast. This Clematis also complements woodland gardens, bringing a touch of elegance to shaded areas.

Clematis Care & Maintenance

Plant Crystal Fountain™ in fertile, well-drained soil with consistent moisture. Choose a location with full sun to part shade, ensuring the roots remain cool and shaded, which can be achieved by mulching or planting low-growing groundcovers at the base.

Provide a support structure for climbing, and water regularly, especially during dry periods. In late winter or early spring, prune lightly to remove dead or weak stems, and after the first flush of flowers, prune again to encourage a second bloom.

Clematis are very easy-to-grow and care for!

Watering: Maintain consistent soil moisture, avoiding waterlogging.
Pruning: This Clematis belongs to pruning group 2, blooming on both old and new wood. Lightly prune in late winter or early spring to remove dead or weak stems; prune after the first bloom to encourage a second flush.
Fertilizing: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring as new growth emerges.
Mulching: Use mulch to keep roots cool and retain soil moisture.
Support: Provide a trellis or other structure for the vine to climb.
