Hur rotar du clematis

My first clematis was &#;Mrs. N. Thompson&#;, a spindly specimen from a local garden center, but I thought it was something spectacular because it was a clematis that wasn&#;t &#;Nelly Moser&#;.

Flowering times range from late winter right through to autumn, with certain species putting on two command performances over the growing season!

And they come in a great variety of sizes suitable for a myriad of settings that includes borders, containers, ground covers, screens, and trellises.

But, they do have a reputation for being a bit difficult to grow – with confusion over pruning being the main reason.

Despite rumors to the contrary, clematis vines are vigorous, reliable ornamentals and they are simple to cultivate with little effort.

It’s true that they’re finicky about where they like to set their roots. And yes, a bit of extra

As the summer fades, so do many of the beautiful floral displays we’ve come to enjoy.

Sure, we have fall foliage, sunny chrysanthemums, and moody asters to look forward to. But sometimes I know I’m just not ready to let go of the floral abundance of the warmer months.

If you’re feeling the same way about the end of summer, it’s time to add some dazzling fall flowers into the garden mix, and clematis can be just the thing.

When many people think of clematis, they picture spring-blooming beauties that fade as summer progresses. But some species and cultivars are just hitting their stride when autumn arrives.

In this guide, we’re going to cover some of the prettiest, most impressive options that put on one heck of a fall display. Here’s a sneak peak of all that lies ahead:
