Growing Valour Clematis

Tough and reliable, preferring full sun but will tolerate most aspects. Happy on the coast. It will perform best with its roots in deep moist soil.

Clematis viticella Valour - growing instructions:

• Give it a deep, moist spot to bury its roots into.
• The soil needs to be well drained (it won't tolerate water logging).
• Needs a supporting structure to climb - as all growth is pruned back each year, the plant will never overwhelm trees or shrubs that it climbs through.
• Final height of 3m makes it well suited to scrambling through small to medium trees and shrubs.
• Pruning group 3 - cut down all stems each year in early spring (before new growth begins) to a set of buds 15-20cm above ground level.
• All clematis like a mulch of well-rotted manure or garden compost in late spring.
