Clematis florida 'Sieboldii'

Pot up clematis plants and grow them on until large enough to plant in their final positions. When planting clematis, choose a position in sun or semi-shade and plant the climber deeply in moist, fertile, well drained soil. Position the top of the rootball at a depth of 7.5cm (3") below soil level, to encourage new shoots to form from the base of the plant. Clematis dislike soils that are particularly wet or dry. Such soils can be improved by the addition of plenty of well rotted manure or garden compost. When growing clematis in patio containers use a soil based compost such as John Innes No.3. Train clematis plants onto a suitable support such as trellis, wires or a freestanding climbing frame.

Feed and water frequently throughout the growing season. This variety of clematis flowers in late summer on the current year's growth. Pruning should be undertaken in spring before active growth begins. When pruning Clematis florida 'Sieboldii', cut back all of the previous years stems to a pair of healthy buds at around 20cm (8") above ground level. In spring, apply a mulch of well rotted manure or garden compost to the base of the plant in order to protect the roots and conserve soil moisture.

   Looking Good So Far

   By Alan Kent 31-08-2012

   Bought 6 plugs while on offer and they arrived in reasonable condition - 1 of 6 appeared very twiggy initially but is now showing signs of life. 3 have been put into the ground and these are already growing well, despite summer being over. The others are in containers and not growing so rapidly. Hopefully these will do well next year and survive any harsh wether in the months ahead - only time will tell.
