Care instructions

Grow in moist but well-drained soil in full sune or partial shade. In Spring cut back the stems to a pair of strong buds 15-20cm above ground level before new growth begins. This makes late-flowering clematis useful for training into shrubs, trees and climbing roses as the clematis growth is removed each spring and so never becomes too much of a burden on its supporting plant.
