Thank you for this informative video. Your information is very clear. Only one small thing. A clematis does fine in a plastic container. I have mine in black, plastic containers for years and they are doing fine. I have them both flanking my front door facing west. They are blasted by the sun from late morning till sundown. My trick: when it’s hot, water them twice. Once in the morning and once in the evening. This keeps their roots cool too. I have other plants to the front in the same pot and they also keep the roots cool. As the old saying goes: they want their face in the sun and feet in the shadow….

The pearlite is important for potted plants to aid in drainage, while retaining moisture. In the soil it is less important because the surrounding soil provides the same effect.

I would put it in the ground and buy a new one in the spring for your pot. Alternatively you totally can bring them in into a warm room and they will even bloom during your long winter. They may need some additional light though... Do not overwater and give them miracle grow, they will love you 4 this... also 3rd way: bring them inside in a cold storage, let them go dormant during the winter, but do not freeze them to death so the unheated garage wouldn,t work unless you are zone 6... cold storage with minimum light, but water them from time to time

That seems like a very small container for two Clematis. How long do you expect them to live in that pot? Just asking as I'm on planting two together to climb my fence but I'm using a much larger pot.. Thanks
@newleafplantsltd79564 жыл бұрын
Container size is all about giving enough room for the plant to receive enough water and nutrients. All containers need higher attention than plants grown in the ground so watering is key in the growing and dryer months along with feeding on a more regular basis when plants are growing and producing flower bud. These two will be quite happy in here for a good number of years as long as i provide water and food at the right time.

Just cut them. At the end of flowering season you are meant to give clematis good, hard prune. I cut my Jack Manii in February leaving only 2 inches above the ground and it is already over 7 feet tall, growing very fast and flowering season hasn't started yet. Consult which pruning group your clematis belongs to and cut and change the obelisk at the same time.

Razi speaks sense, most clematis will be okay with a hard prune regardless of type, you may just miss out on flowering for a season.

Is it possible to train a clematis in a container up a fence? I've bought one to climb on my fence but only have patio beneath it.
@EdurtreG Жыл бұрын
Yes, you can. I have been doing that for years. Use some type of basestructure though in the pot, so that if you want to remove it after pruning you can without it bendig and snapping the plantbase, but better to leave it in place. Put a big dish under the pot and preferably put companionplants in pots around to keep it cool or frostprotected. With heavy frost cover with straw and f.e. cardboard. Turn the dish upside down so critters still can not enter but excess water can not build up. Campanula goes very well with Clematis, is low maintenance ánd can be tricked into climbing so it will covers the bigger pots. Also good to plant directly in the Clematiscontainer. Lavendula is another. Cloverbulbs in shallow pots. Helping polinators.

For clematis, group 2 big flowers specifically, clematis wilt is a really big problem. When you bury the crown a couple of inches, even if the above ground part wilts, the new shoots would come out from the buried crown and your clematis survives.

You can loosen the root ball but this may cause damage so I only do this if the plant is root bound and needs help escaping. All plant material taken from any plant has a chance of rooting and always worth a go, what is there to loose? Better inserted into a very gritty compost mix. Andy
