Great video! You are becoming my North Texas “go to” gardener to watch and grow along with!!😊 🌸
So nice of you!
the pictures of the roses with the clematis have insired me1
Right? I love the way it looks with the two climbing each other!
I have a jackmamnii with Roxanne geraniums at the base. When the clematis is done, the geraniums climb up the clematis.
I bet that is gorgeous!
I buy bare root perennials every year :) I had great success with hardy geraniums, black eyed susan, helianthus (Happy days), thalichtrum, oriental poppies and aquilegia. This year i ordered clematis, sedum, geum and ferns :)) can't wait to start planting. I usually plant directly in the ground ( after soaking them in water) end of march beginning of april. Live in zone 9b
Awesome! I’ve been wanting to try Geum … are you happy with yours?
yes. Geum Mai Tai (Apricot color) is the one I planted last year and they did flower. Hopefully i will have more blooms this year. Held up to the heat and humidity we have here. This year i ordered Tales of hex (Butter yellow).@@shesamadgardener
I grow my clematis through my shrub roses and Rose of Sharon. They help to provide shade for the clematis. It takes them a few years to get established. Trumpet vine is very invasive in my garden too. I found out the hard way. Bonny zone 5b Canada
Do you think I could grow clematis through a shrub like a ligustrum?
I can't grow ligustrum in my zone 5b garden. I don't see why not. As long as the clematis is getting sun on the top and shaded on the bottom. Plant a couple of feet away from shrub. @@shesamadgardener
I went to my Lowes yesterday and it was super sparse as well. But of course I found a few things to bring home 🌸🥰🌸lol
Of course!
Thanks for the information 😊never thought of putting a clematis with a climbing rose before great idea!
Glad it was helpful!
Finally got to Lowe’s ( Home Depot didn’t have any clematis) and picked up two Warsaw Nike. So excited to follow your process. 🌸
Awesome!!!
Thanks Amanda. 😊 I really like clematis. And I pronounce it the same way and I live in Oregon. 😊
Love that!
❤ ❤ ❤ them. Great information.
Glad you like them!
I have two, they both bloom in the first year. Love them
Yay! What varieties?
In your zone, you may not be getting enough cold westher for a shrub peony to do well. They need to go through stratification over winter in order for them to bloom in spring. Tree peonies do not need that, so you will have luck with those thriving in zone 8. They are much expensive though, but have huge dinner plate size blossoms that are fragrant. Tree peonies are the way to go in zone 8, if you want to plant any peonies.
I agree … I actually had a peony put out a bud this year for the first time … it’s planted in a container so it was able to get colder instead of being in the ground.
Lowe’s was probably late to the game this year because of the horrible storm last week that may have delayed their shipments. My beneficial nematodes were delivered 1-week late because of that delay (west coast). There may have been a hub delay too.
That could definitely cause delays.
❤
Thanks!
I've read there are 3 different groups of clematis. Copied off google search is the following: Group 1 blooms spring on old wood and do not require pruning to flower the following year. Group 2 clematis bloom in early summer, first on old wood, then on new wood. These can be pruned after flowering. Group 3 clematis bloom in late summer on new wood. Did the roots from Lowes happen to indicate the Group variety? Also have you discovered which group works best for our southern climate?
They did not say on the package but it is an easy look up. I don’t have enough experience with the three groups to teach about it yet, but maybe after this year
Yes, easy look up. I grew from bare root from Lowe's and it was easy to google and find the type. I think most of the varieties they carry are fairly well known varieties.
I was gifted 2 clematis from Costco last year. Had no clue if they'd even grow in Houston. planted them in bottomless pots in shaded spots. They vined out on my trellis and as you said, didn't bloom again after being planted. I didn't cover or protect during 19 degrees and I checked this morning and there is new leaf growth from, what look like, dead stems!😮😊 So I did check and both are Group 2 so being hopeful for beautiful flowers this spring!
I search for "What pruning group is ??? clematis?" & it pops up.
Jackmanii is pruning group 3...blooms on new wood. I have 15 bareroot to pot up & will grow on fence & arbor with John Davis roses.
I am thankful I now know how to pot up bareroot clematis.
Ugh day lillies. Again, can’t stand them. I’m stuck with one that is the only plant that works in this sloppy area of my yard.
They serve a purpose in many gardens … just not mine 🤷♀️
⚾️

Love the new clematis. I like the idea of planting it with your rose, that’s going to look awesome.
Can't wait!
From the reading I have done, Henrii and Nelly Moser are supposed to be varieties that do well in Texas, not sure about southwestern Tx.
I have a Belle de Woking also from Lowe's (bare root). I started mine spring 2022 and left it in a nursery can for it's first year. I put it in a landscape pot last spring so that I can adjust sun exposure as needed. Had a couple of bloom buds, but deer got them. 😭
Deer like the foliage in addition to the blooms. I have another from Costco, don't remember the variety, but I think it was under $40. Clematis can also be used as a ground cover, left to ramble along the ground. I haven't tried that yet.
I have tried Sandra Bernhardt peonies. I started mine in pots so I could adjust sun exposure. They did nothing, no sprouts despite following directions to a T. Possibly too hot in the large nursery pots. I'm in San Antonio and I regularly see Itoh peonies and the Shirley Temple variety of peony at the local nursery. I believe those are the ones that do best in Texas. I'm not really sure how to plant them here because I know they want lots of sun, but don't like really hot sun. I'm thinking maybe a few hours of early morning sun with dappled shade/sun through the rest of the day?
Everyone that I know who grows peonies in Texas has them planted on the east side of their homes so they get morning sun and afternoon shade.
I have a jamanii blooming together with a no-name lavender on an arbor and last year was one of the better shows. There's a red climbing rose on the other side and after the picture of the red and purple, I'm going to try and get them connected.
I also have a PW clematis that's pink out back and I'm babying 4 I got from Breck's 2 years ago. Let's hope year 3 is a leap year!!
I'm with you on the patient train, but I'm not sure gardening has helped me quite yet😂.
Patience is not something I am great at 😬
Thank you for this topic. I’ve bought clematis from Barefoot and the plant. I’ve killed them all 🥴 I love them and want them so badly. I have a trellis with a David Austin rose and I want clematis on the opposite side.
That would be beautiful!
Really enjoyed this video. Your information is always priceless. How often will you be watering the Clematis? Keeping your plants moist has always been a challenge for me. Thank you always for sharing.
I imagine once a week but I’ll check it every day to see the moisture level.
I have an HF Young but wish I had known it flowers only in Spring (not the type that flowers through the summer). Love the varieties you chose, looking forward to seeing them progress
I have HF Young and it reflowers in the fall for me.
I feel like it is a shame that plants come into stores that may not do well in that certain area. That could really discourage new gardeners if they don’t have success. Good thing you know what does well in your neck of the woods. I live in Maryland and we get Rust on Hollyhock, so I ripped mine out too. Thanks for bringing us along! 🌸🌸🌸
Agreed … and as a beginner gardener I purchased so many of these and felt defeated that they didn’t make it. It’s really unfortunate.
I am in Michigan and just got 2 hollyhock. I really hope they do well.
I picked up the 2 purple ones up last night at Lowe’s! I’m so excited to try them. This will be my first time growing Clematis! This video was perfect timing!! Thank you so much! Have a Blessed Day! Blessings!💙💙🙏🙏🦋🦋
Awesome! I hope you love them!
I, too, am looking to add several clematis to my garden this year! I'm going to check out Lowes thanks to your suggestion. I do want at least ONE clematis that is mature though, so I'm probably going to purchase a gallon size Jackmanii in the spring! In regards to Nikko Blue Hydrangea, I have a lot of hydrangea macrophylla here in North Texas! In the RIGHT location, they can thrive! They absolutely need almost full shade though. A little morning sun or filtered shade is great for getting blooms, but shade the rest of the day is vital. Nikko blue blooms on old wood only, so sometimes with these February arctic cold fronts, it damages the blooms. Look for one like "Endless Summer" hydrangea that blooms on old wood and new wood, so you are guaranteed blooms each year! And in regard to Peonies, I have killed two peonies and had 0 success so far- the Sarah Bernhardt and the Karl Rosenfield varieties. One was planted full sun (it fried) and one was planted in part sun (this one *may* be still alive, but I think it's dead). It's so fun watching your videos and seeing another North Texas gardener in action. 🙂
This is great info about the hydrangeas! Thank you!
I love these videos to see what the different stores have. I want to start some clematis this year. I did hostas from bare root last year. I can’t wait to see if they will come up again this year.
That is awesome! I hope they come back for you. I love watching other gardeners shop for plants ❤️
Thanks for the info I also love clematis with my climbing roses.
You are so welcome!
Great video of bare root planting. I've had a jackamani for years and it so reliable and blooms with the daffodils. I have a couple of Sarah Bernhardt peonies that I bought as full plants. Still took a couple of years to get lots of blooms but worth the wait. I agree with you about forsythia. They look great blooming early spring but then are not that attractive.
Sounds great! Yeah, I’m thinking if I want a peony, I will need to invest in a full grown plant.
I just hate forsythia. After it blooms, cut it down to about a foot high. It never looks better each year just more flowers and the proper pruning is natural/not sculpted.
I could roll with that … then it would be cool to have a blooming shrub in front of it after it blooms.
I’ve always wanted some clematis but my local nursery had them last year for 100.00 😮. I’m gonna try this . Thank you
Yes they are pretty expensive full grown!
They had some clematis bare roots at Walmart this week for $5.50! They were in great condition too. Thanks for all the great info on planting!
That is awesome!
I live in zone 8a also planted 2 of the same viburnums. They got about 5/6 ft tall beautiful plants never bloomed after 3 yrs they died.
Well crap … I hope that is not the case for mine but it sounds like it 😬
If you give the the Japanese snowball to much fertilizer, with a high nitrogen number you will get more greenery and no flowers.
The only time I fertilized it was when it was planted 3 years ago. I wonder if fertilizer from the lawn could affect it?
I fully agree with you about the peonies roots 😅. Seriously the amount of money I wasted on them, I would rather save that money to buy the full plants instead.
Same 😂
My Sweet Autumn clematis was started last year from up at my lake house (grows crazy behind our house) brought a little home and it's insane how much growth in one season! The varieties you picked out are gorgeous ❤
Oh wow! I wondered about propagating some varieties … was it pretty easy?
@shesamadgardener it was super easy once I was able to get a chunk out of my clematis jungle I call it lol 😆 I plan on doing more for my home here in the Spring.
Excellent video! Looking forward to seeing their progress before and after you transplant them in their stated locations outside. Thoroughly enjoy all your videos eventhough I live in Zone 3 in Northwestern Ontario Canada! 😊🤗
Lily of the Valley can be quite invasive so should be planted in an area where it can be controlled.
Good to know!
Wow. Amazing upload 🎉🎉
Thank you so much 🙂
I have 5 clematis plants but only one was bare root. I planted them this spring and up until this freeze they were all doing well. I’m just not sure how much sun they can take so I hope they recover and that I have them planted in the right areas. This is my first time growing these. I have one hollyhock plant a friend gave me. It’s new from this spring so I’m anxious to see how it does. Peonies, I’ve had them for several years as a cutting from my great grandmothers place. They have always bloomed, even the first year after I moved them 3 years ago but haven’t done great since then. I moved them from pots to the ground this fall so will probably won’t get blooms but I think it’s better in the long run. Good luck with all of your new clematis!
Let me know what variety of peony you are growing!
@@shesamadgardener The best I can tell is it’s a Festiva Maximus. Several years ago, I got a cutting from my great grandmother’s gravesite. She passed away at least 70+ years ago but I don’t know when it was planted there. It had been there for years with absolute, total neglect so I know it’s a very hardy variety. If it blooms this year, I send you a photo.
Your snowball bush could be planted too deep which can cause it not to bloom 👍
Oh good to know!
I love the planner, too! I want to do that. Have you done a planner walk through?
Not yet, but I will soon!
I am in Texas zone 8, I bought 3 Sarah Bernhardt peonies from Costco 8 years ago, they were easy to grow and have multiplied to 5 plants. They need full sun and bloom profusely every year. I give them iron supplements as leaves show green veins because of our alkaline soil. I have heard they don’t like to be moved and don’t bloom 😮after being moved. I have not experienced this. I move things around frequently 😅. I have finally found a perfect spot where after they bloom they can stay in a less significant part or my backyard. I have always had good luck with Costco bulbs and bare roots. I recommend trying their stuff. I felt the same about forsythia it’s insignificant after blooming so I bought proven winners shrub by mail it’s small 2x2 very pretty for 2-3 weeks:-)
That is so awesome that you are able to grow them! What side of your house are they planted in? Do they get absolutely full sun all day?
@@shesamadgardener its on the North side of the house and has been a journey, after reading about it I planted it in full sun (like 14 hours of Texas sun), but here the leaves scorched by August. Then I over corrected and planted them in a shade area (bright light but no direct sun) I got healthy green foliage without scorching and no blooms. Now have them where they get bright light all day direct sun 6-8 hours, they are thriving here.
They are in a corner, they have beautiful scented blooms for 4 weeks and then it’s done. I cut all the blooms and bring them inside to enjoy. That’s the same time when feverfew is blooming and they look great together in a vase!
I was thinking of growing lily of the valley. Should I not?
I have never grown it, so I can’t advise on that!
❤
Thanks!
I want to plant them in a pot and not in the ground is that ok? And if i do can i use biotone instead of compost when i pot them?
Yep! That will work just fine!
Thank you so much
New Zone 9A (it changed from 8B to 9A 11/15/23) I learned something today. I will purchase some clematis. Thank You. I enjoy your videos.
Wonderful!
My Home Depot doesn't have anything yet. Lowe's had a descent amount. I'm planning on going back to both Saturday, hopefully there will be more :)
I hope so too!
Very nice information
Thanks!
Good info! Thanks for sharing 😊
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for showing us this process. I have been afraid to buy those because I can’t see in that green bag! Now I am headed to the store to give it a try!
You can do it!
I love the Belle de Woking clematis! A double! It looks amazing.
I can’t wait to see it in my garden!
I love Clematis,🌸
Same ❤️
I’m a bit further south than you (near San Antonio) but I have found that hydrangea just does NOT love our heat. I have tried them in sun, part shade, and full shade and they all struggle and struggle until they finally perish. It’s heartbreaking. Also, in case you aren’t aware: hydrangea blooms blue in acidic soils or pink in alkaline soil. White hydrangea will always be white; but the pink and blue are subjective to soil composition.
Yep, hydrangeas don’t love our heat. I’ve been able to grow limelight, oak leaf, and quick fire which have done fine with our heat. But I’d love to add a larger variety!
@TrixieJFerguson, howdy neighbor! I'm also in SA area. I have had good luck with Endless Summer macrophylla hydrangea that I have planted in large pots. Mine are on the north side of a deciduous tree. November -late March they get mostly full sun, so they get a good charge for blooms when the temps are cooler. During the heat months they get some morning sun and then little peaks of sun and shade the rest of the day. The trouble I have had recently with them is the hard freeze we had last year. I was unable to put them in the garage like previous years. They still had green foliage when the hard freeze hit in December 2022. I had several branches die. I cut them back and am trying to nurse them along.
I'm on my third Little Lime panicle hydrangea. They haven't done well for me, no blooms. The first two I killed. 😬
Not sure if they don't get enough sun or what. If this third one continues to disappoint this year, I will probably try to plant it in my parents yard in Oklahoma City this coming fall. Maybe a better situation for it
@@dawnmitchell11 I am so jealous. I had five of the macrophylla from the Proven Winners “Let’s Dance” series and they never thrived. After about three years of doing nothing they all started to struggle and one by one I lost them all. 😩 I have three of the Incrediball that I planted on the east side of my house last year and they didn’t really do much, but I’m still holding out hope for them.

Great video
Thanks!
Are you fertilizing these right now?
I just added compost for now. When I plant in the garden, I will add a slow release fertilizer.
Love Clematis. I’m now a zone8 formerly zone7b they do well here. I’ve found the ones from box stores are just as good as the online purchased ones as far as even those take 2 seasons before blooming. Can’t wait to hear more about your Don Juan and Jackman combo. I planted the Miss Bateman last year to pair with my D.J. And see signs of buds on it now!!
I’m so excited to get them planted in the ground!
