CULTURAL NOTES ON CLEMATIS 
Select a location for Clematis which receives at least six 
hours of sunshine a day and see that the soil is a rich loose 
loam with good drainage. If the soil is not rich, it would pay 
to dig a good size hole, remove the soil and refill with a good 
loam. Provide a support for the plants to climb upon as 
Clematis do not like to have their tops and leaves on the 
ground but rather up into the air and light. A moist, cool 
root-run for the summer months is well worth the trouble of 
mixing 34 peat moss and !4 Driconure to provide a mulch at 
least two inches deep and in a two-foot circle around the 
plant. A little Vigoro and lime worked into the soil once or 
twice a season will supply the essential requirements. In ex- 
tremely dry weather they should be watered from time to time. 
When cold weather arrives in the fall, safe winter protection 
can be easily accomplished by pulling soil up around the stems 
and covering with leaves, straw or other loose material. If 
height of vine is desired, little pruning, and only to remove 
the dead wood, in February or March, is enough, but gen- 
erally Clematis make better display if cut back to 18 inches 
above the ground in the very early spring before the new 
shoots have started. 
PRUNING 
Pruning may be disregarded for the first season except to 
remove dead wood, if any, in the early spring. It takes a 
couple of seasons for Clematis to produce a root system that 
will support the heavy top growth they eventually make. When 
the tops are good size, they should be cut back 12 to 15 
inches above the ground in the early spring before the plants 
start to grow. The Duchess of Edinburgh variety, bloom- 
ing on old or last season’s wood, should not be cut back 
except to remove the dead wood or the bloom will be lost for 
the season. All other varieties bloom on new summer shoots.
