Growing & Maintenance Tips
Clematis need moist, alkaline soil with good drainage. Use the Queen of vines to decorate a mailbox or lamppost, shade a porch or pergola, scramble over a shrub or into a tree, along the top of a fence or wall, or weave among perennials as a groundcover. Roots have to remain cool and their foliage exposed to the sun.
