GRACEFUL CLEMATIS 
Easy To Grow 
A rich, well-drained garden soil, loosened by the 
addition of sand or peat moss, is best. Thoroughly 
mixing a tablespoonful of lime with the soil that is 
used in planting will overcome any acid condition. 
The plants should be set 3 inches deeper than in the 
pot, with the soil firmed well around the roots and 
watered frequently in dry weather. A trellis or support 
should be provided at the time of planting to prevent 
the cracking of the brittle bark. When the plants are 
established they can be well fertilized and mulched with 
manure annually with excellent results.
