The Clematis we offer this season are extremely 
fine, strong 2-year-old plants. Many failures in the 
growing of Clematis are the result of too shallow 
planting. The crown of the roots should be set at least 3 inches below the 
surface of the soil. On account of the brittleness of the bark on Clematis, it 
cracks very easily, which, however, does not harm it in the least.
