Very clear explanation, and very helpful. I did not realize there were three different types. I've got about 15 clematis growing in my yard - along fences, in bee/butterfly gardens - and I have not paid much attention to pruning. It is just the right time of year to watch to see how each is growing - and to type them so I can take better care of them in the future. Thank you!
Thank you for this wonderful information I got my mom one for mother's day and this is the only one I found really helpful also my husband wood works so he made a trellis and it looks all amazing could not have found the right spot with out watching this video happy planting and I will keep doing the same God bless have a wonderful day t.y again!!!
It's good to know that group one and two don't need much, if any pruning. My landscaping is almost all summer-fall blooming, so I need some spring and early summer blooming color. Cute, easy care plants would be great. Thanks.
@@HarmonyHillsHomeandGarden Thank you. One more question. I have a pretty large infestation of spider mites, grubs, crickets, grasshoppers, aphids, and at this point, who knows what else. How many years does it normally take to get critters under control enough to make planting new cute things worthwhile? Everything keeps dying. I plan to use predatory insects as biological controls.
Thank you so much for all your suggestions on plants and scrubs.As a new gardener I'm so looking forward to trying these plants in my yard in the future. 🙃😊🥰
Just now caught this video. Wish I had seen it last year. You do such a good job of teaching. We are still in May. I'm going to see if I can correct some errors I made with my clematis. Thanks Jenny!
Of course I bought the invasive clematis 😅. Good to know that it is a group 3. It bloomed really great one year and since it has not done much. I believe clematis like alkaline soil and I gave it some lime and it’s growing. The Josephine was new last year and it is taking off and the roots are not shaded like the other two, but have straw mulch. I may have to move the other two as I dont think the shaded roots do well or it’s too close to the oak.
Hi from New Zealand, I am a bit of a clematis hoarder I guess. I buy about 20 each year when I travel north to Christchurch and had run out of places to put them, we just purchased a holiday home in Oamaru so have an excuse to buy more🥰 I have made friends with a grower so he gives me a great deal which is great as they are pretty expensive here. Thanks for the great video.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR HELPFUL ADVICE. I JUST PURCHASED FOUR CLEMATIS, DIFFERENT COLORS, AND THE NURSEY TAGS DIDN'T INDICATE THEIR NAMES. BUT I HAVE GLEANED FROM YOU THAT THEY ARE TYPE 2. ;O)
Just found this video as I got and planted clematis this week. 'City of Lyon', blooms early summer, perennial, comes back year after year. What a lot of in depth information on the plant tag 😜 zero information on what type of clematis this is. I'll have to do more searching I guess.
I have a few but my favourites I have growing are my (Josephine) and (Girenas) I have just purchased one called (Vienetta) so I’m excited to see how it turns out 😊 you have a lovely collection and a variety of colours that are going to be gorgeous 🪴🌺🪴
I had looked online to try and figure out what type of Clematis we have here and then came across your video. Feel certain that it is a Nelly Moser. The vines are a complete tangled mess going up through a rather unattractive shrub. Have decided to leave it be as things are starting to warm up a little here in Nova Scotia and will attempt to prune both the shrub and the Clematis back after the Clematis is done blooming. Thank you for the very informative video. Lyle
My clematis looked just like your opening picture, last Summer, light pink and big blooms all Summer. It stayed in the basement all winter, watered well and Its still potted, which It has a nice root ball, and I trimmed back the brown stems. They’re green inside, so I think it’s alive, but it’s not putting out any green leaves on the brown stems I left. I’m just not sure if I cut it back enough, and what to do going forward. Any advice?
Guessing that when you put it outside again, the weather will tell it what to do. Plant it in some good soil, keep the rootball moist but not soaking, and wait and see. Good luck!
I'm sure you know it, but there is a "Nelly Moser" azalea that has a bloom very similar to the clematis. We had several at a home we sold several years ago. They went very well with Formosa and George Taber azaleas.
As a side note, I just looked up Formosa azaleas and what I found looked nothing like what we bought for Formosa years ago. Ours were a solid deep purple (my wife would disagree with my color description, so I won't ask her).
Now how do you have a clematis just pop up.? I am like an expecting father with the 3 that I have. I check on them 10 times a day, did a lot of research on growing and caring for them and baby them keep them protected. That being said I hadn't seen your videos until now , I asked Google should I deadhead she said absolutely, you can even cut about 12 in from the stem to promote growth and blossom, I then asked her for a video of proper deadheading and very soon found out that you are not to cut 12 in but only the flower head because you will cut new blooms starting on the stem. Then your video told me a whole lot more, did know there were different types but didn't know how many main types and the characteristics that you can identify them by. Of course I'll have to pay close attention this year to find out which ones I have. And glad you told about the one that seemed to have died but is coming back this year. That makes me less anxious and more hopeful to know that they are a bit more resilient than I have been experiencing or convinced myself I was experiencing. They are just so damn beautiful and vibrant that I assumed that they must be delicate. I'm planting more this year and trying my hand at hydrangea one more time, no those babies are fragile until they are strong and firmly established. Lost a pint size last year, this year I bought a 2 gal superstar. It's supposed to be a brand new genome that is an extreme bloomer in both abundance and continue sly, it is beautiful but direct sun will burn her alive. Quickly found that out . I'm gonna plant her in a container for the first couple years til I'm more aquatinted with her needs and characteristics.
Wonderful video -thank you! I'm a very novice gardener, but am now feeling inspired to try a clematis on my apartment patio (fingers crossed). Question: If I plant a clematis in a half wine barrel against the center of a wooden trellis/fence that is 5 feet high and 12 feet wide, could the vines be trained to grow horizontally in each direction (hope that makes sense!) to cover the fence and provide a "screen" of leaves and flowers?
I think so, yes, but depending on the variety, it will be smaller or bigger, thicker or thinner, etc. Not all clematis grow to be huge masses. Good luck!
@@HarmonyHillsHomeandGarden Thank you so much for your reply! I hadn't even thought about those types of differences between Clematis varieties. Now, I get to have fun researching which ones will grow thickly and massively, and am feeling excited about what I'll come up with! 😊
It might be a killian Donahue? It has the dual color, bright pink with purple. Beautiful 😻 I had a diamond clematis but it was in a spot that was too hot in the front of my house. I need to find another placement for it that receives partial shade. I’m in zone 9
i dont even know what clematis i have but is from aldi and never seen it flower in the ground is struggling. I will pot it so i can control the soil better
Just to be sure, clematises have a specific time window for bloom. Is there any variety which is rebloomer? Or at least give two flushings in the same season?
There are lots of varieties which rebloom - look for "Pruning Group 2" types... they bloom on old wood in the spring, then again on new wood later in the summer.
I just bought some recently from Lowe’s. They were all in the bags and dried so I’m not sure if that’s how supposed to look like? Lol so now they are in the pots just waiting to see if they’ll come up. How long does it takes until I see the growth peaks through?
Thanks for the sub! I've never grown clematis in a pot, so I'm afraid I can't really be of help there. Each clematis variety has its own season for blooming, and I don't think you can force them to bloom all season long, so just beware of that.
Sorry about that - from my point of view, a huge shrub like the lilac serves a similar purpose to a small tree. I'm guessing it's not the only inaccuracy you'll find here, but, I do the best I can. :-)
I enjoyed watching this. Very nice way of explaining and teaching about the Clematis plant. Thank you
The like button doesn't seem to be working, but I like your video very much, thanks
Thank you!
I love the purple ones. I just bought one from Home Depot that I'm looking forward to planting.
Have fun, and enjoy! I love clematis too!

I hope to try pink anemone this fall. Enjoyed your video. Thank you.
I enjoy watching your show!😊
I'm so glad! Thank you!
Great advice - thank you (John in Cambridge UK)
My clematis sits in a sunny spot can I cover the roots with wood chipping or gravel to shade the roots
Yes, that should work!
I’m growing some from seed. Excited to see how they do. Thank you for sharing your expertise!
Good luck with yours!

THANK YOU 😃
Thank you for this video. Very informative . How long typically would that clematis take to cover the arbour. Thinking of buying one and love clematis
That totally depends on variety. The Nellie Moser is covering one side of the arbor completely, this is its third spring in that location.
My clematis looked just like your opening picture, last Summer, light pink and big blooms all Summer. It stayed in the basement all winter, watered well and Its still potted, which It has a nice root ball, and I trimmed back the brown stems.

I have a question, for the group 3, when it dies back to the ground can you clean up the dry crunchy dead stems and leaves?
yes you can!

Well, the unidentified clematis bit the dust in 2021, so I guess I don't have to worry about what variety it was after all. :-(

Thank you. :-)
I'm going to plant a couple of clematis tomorrow :D what i bought is clematis victoria :D
Good luck, hope it's lovely!
Just sub hi from England stop at a certain point how to make them flower (feed)???? In pot 👍👍👍👍👍👍

I have a taiga...what should I do with her?
I'm not familiar with that variety, so I guess I'd recommend a quick google search to find out specific care instructions. Good luck!
@@HarmonyHillsHomeandGarden looks like I have to trim it down to the root.
Çok çok güzeller can fifesini satıyormusun fiyatı ne kadar
I don't sell plants. Costs vary at the garden centers, I find the clematis are usually $20-40 each.
This won't hurt the lilac?
not at all!
How do we now whate grip they are
I just google it.
What did you fertilize with when you planted it?
Biotone Starter Fertilizer by Espoma
What kind of fertilizer should be used for a mature plant/clematis ? How much and how frequently it needs to be applied? @@HarmonyHillsHomeandGarden
How do you stop deer from eating your clematis and hydrangeas?
I plant all hydrangeas inside my fence. The deer have so far not bothered any clematis. 🤞🏻
@@HarmonyHillsHomeandGarden thank you for this information.
💖👍🏻💖
Looks like Barbara Jackman. The one you lost label.
Unfortunately that one died over the summer. :-(
Generally good information but calling a lilac a tree when it is actually a shrub is bothersome.
Sorry about that - from my point of view, a huge shrub like the lilac serves a similar purpose to a small tree. I'm guessing it's not the only inaccuracy you'll find here, but, I do the best I can. :-)
