This compact clematis is ideal for patios, rockeries, hanging baskets, or larger windowboxes - and it also looks stunning when woven through the front of a border. Its small yellow, bell-shaped flowers appear over several months so will offer a long season of interest, and as they fade attractive seedheads develop. Easy and undemanding, it's also incredibly tough - perfect for colder regions or more exposed gardens.
Please note that the pot in the photograph is not supplied with the plant (which is sent out in a simple nursery alternative), but we have a wide and wonderful range on our website to to choose from.
In early spring cut back the previous year's stems to a pair of strong buds about 15-20cm (6-8in) above ground level and apply a slow-release balanced fertiliser and a mulch of well-rotted garden compost around the plant, avoiding the immediate crown.
To avoid dry conditions, and to ensure good soil contact around the rootball, we advise planting climbers at least 30cm (12in), and preferably 45-60cm (18-24in) away from the base of a wall or fence. An even larger distance should be maintained when planting climbers beside an existing tree or shrub.
