What surprised me the most was learning there is no such thing as Clematis Wilt. Now I will try treating for slugs.

@FlowerPatchFarmhouse 5 ай бұрын

There is a fungus that causes clematis wilt, it has been identified as Phoma clematidina. What this video should have said is that what some believe is wilt is actually from slugs and snails but Clematis Wilt is not a myth. The disease angle has been examined and there is now clear evidence that a known fungi can infect clematis and cause the observed symptoms. That fungi can be extracted from wilted plants and used to infect other plants.

No Clematis wilt and not needing to have their roots in shade, both of those surprised me the most 🤩

I will give you another one that might or might not surprise you there is no such thing technically as a climbing rose. I think most English gardeners know this but over the pond it seems less so.

They all surprised me as i just planted mine and left it alone. It blooms beautifully year after year. Most people i know are not garden people. They plant and that’s it. There clematis look great year after year. So i took a cue from them.

I would say the thing that surprised me the most was pruning it. I do cut them back in the fall within a couple inches of the ground. And I let the old vine dry on the trellis. Once it dries I pull it off But i've never pruned mine during spring through fall. All 4 of mine go crazy in the spring giving so many blooms. And I just figured when they quit putting new buds and blooming, that the next step in the cycle was just being green and letting its roots grow deeper.

There are different types of clematis and different ways to prune them.

I planted succulent plants, stonecrop mostly, at their base, the clematis seemed happy, the first batch I didn’t do that and i lost them.

@elainavalzania4664 6 ай бұрын

I have had clematis for years, but the question for me is what kind do I have. There are bell shaped purple blue vigorous bloomers, and two purple large flowering bloomers which I never cut back but the plants are spindly and don't produce many flowers. There are not many vines from the ground coming up to the trellis. These I have never cut back because the step seem woody. The bell shaped I cut back to the ground in the Spring and they bloom for weeks so this year I will try cutting them back after that first bloom. The last one I have is a Josephine and it only has ever had two vines up from the root and blooms very little. What do I do with this one to get it be lush and throw out more blooms? One I have may be a Jackmini I think and that has the same leggy appearance, how and when should this one be pruned? Any help and suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

My PF Young clematis is 3 years old. I mistakenly put it on a 4 foot trellis and want to put on a 12-10 foot. I’m not sure the best time and way to remove it from the old trellis. Can you advise please?

@Gardeningknowhow 3 ай бұрын

The best approach is to cut the vine back in early spring and carefully remove the stems from the old trellis. Alternatively, if you'd prefer to keep the entire vine intact, you can place the new trellis over the old one and train the vine to grow up the new structure.

I used to have an abundance of blooms, every spring and summer with mine and now not a single bloom I have three of them, in pots by the front door and I don't know what happened-I don't know when I'm supposed to prune them I will try to find the type I might have kept their little card info...

@carolynreeves3646 5 ай бұрын

I have hostas planted by my clematis because I figured they would shade the clematis roots well and have shallow roots themselves. But now I'm wondering if the hostas are taking the nutrients away from my clematis because I don't get many blooms despite the sun they get. Or possibly slugs hurt them, but I haven't seen slugs eating the hosts, so idk. What is your opinion?

@Gardeningknowhow 5 ай бұрын

There could be a lack of nutrients available to the clematis. If slugs were present, you would notice multiple dead stems. I would suggest moving the hostas if they have grown too large or supplement with an organic granular fertilizer around the base.

There IS such thing as Clematis Wilt. I just had to cut down my entire Pilu and I don’t have slugs and I don’t water the plants. I water under the the leaves directly to the roots - I also have a moisture meter I use to make sure I water correctly…. 😢

@eccentricoldcow 6 ай бұрын

@@karengreene4476 Do you know the name of your clematis, what type it is? That will determine when to prune. Is it a Montana, in which case it probably wont need pruning except to keep it from growing and taking over. they are the most vigorous of all of them.Are you in the UK? If so, there's a really good site called Thorncroft clematis that has information on all of them and the most fantastic supply of clematis. They need their roots in the shade and their tops in the sun preferably.

What is slug bait. I’m so tired of picking them up

@fyvewytches 6 ай бұрын

In my garden slug bait is anything I want to keep… lupins, delphiniums, tomatoes, cucumbers, and so on a fantastic slug bait 😂 Seriously though, I just remove them by hand. I have collected about 600 during the last two evenings and about 3000 this year so far. It’s been so wet, there is slug invasion.

@deborahcole7787 6 ай бұрын

It comes in a box. It's pellets that you sprinkle around the plant. You can also use a small dish of beer near the plant to attract the slugs and they drown b

I agree. I put a saucer full of beer in my garden and that really attracts them. Goodby slugs.
