Growing Clematis These wonderful perennial vines display delightful clusters of blooms, from eary spring throughout the summer and some into the fall. Though Clematis have sometimes been labeled ‘finicky’ or ‘hard to grow’, they can be grown with flying colors when you do the following: 1) Place in a sunny spot where the soil is shaded by nearby plants or ground covers. 2) Provide a trellis or framework for the vine to climb, such as a fence top, roof gables or a tree. 3) Clematis like a well-drained soil that is near a neutral in pH. For the more acid soils west of the Cascades, one medium handful of dolomite lime mixed into the soil beneath the plant’s root ball will help to gradually sweeten the soil. (Do not use hydrated lime, as it will burn.) 4) Plant the root ball one or two inches below the surrounding soil level, to help the plant develop a strong crown. Clematis are hardy from -30°F. to -40°F. This is a list of blooming/pruning information for the varieties available here at the Nursery. To clarify, the pruning comments indicated below, hard means cutting the whole plant down to about 6” to 8” above the ground level and none means trimming only to guide or shape the plant. Prune after bloom, conserving the major stems. Corrective light pruning/pinching helps to encourage lower branching to stave off an exposed base. Both evergreen clematis armandii and paniculata are hardy to -10°F. as well as the montanas. 1 gallon $15.00, 2 gallon clematis - $20.00 VARIETY COLOR 82 FLOWER BLOOM PLANT SIZE TIME SIZE PRUNING armandii Apple Blossom Fragrant pink 1-2” Early Spring 20’-25’ None armandii Snowdrift Fragrant White 1-2” Early Spring 15’-20’ None Barbara Harrington Rose Pink 4-6” Spring, Early Fall 6’-9’ None Barbara Jackman Mauve & pink bicolor 4-6” Spring, Early Fall 6’-9’ None Bee’s Jubilee Pink & carmine bicolor 6-7” Spring, Early Fall 8’-10’ None Belle of Woking Blue 4-6” Spring, Early Fall 6’-9’ None Blue Ravine Lilac blue 7-9” Spring, Early Fall 6’-9’ None Countess de Bouchaud Rose pink 4-6” Summer 8’-12’ Hard Dr. Rupple Pink & red bicolor 6-8” Spring, Early Fall 8’-12’ None Duchess of Edinburgh Double white 4-6” Spring, Early Fall 8’-12’ None Ernest Markham Bright magenta 4-5” Summer 10’-13’ Hard General Sikorski Medium blue 6-8” Summer 8’-10’ None Gillian Blades White 5-7” Early Spring 6’-8’ Hard Gypsy Queen Velvet purple 4-6” Summer 10’-12’ Hard Henryi White 6-8” Spring, Early Fall 8’-10’ None Jackmanii Purple 4-5” Summer 8’-12’ Hard John Warren Pink 8-10” Summer 8’-10’ None Lincoln Star Raspberry & pink bicolor 5-6” Spring, Early Fall 8’-10’ None Madame Edouard Andre Red 4-6” Summer 8’-10’ Hard montana Grandiflora Scented white 2-3” Early Spring 20’-30’ None montana Pink Perfecttion Scented pink 2-3” Early Spring 20’-30’ None Multi-Blue Blue 4-5” Spring, Early Fall 6’-8’ None Nelly Moser Red 5-6” Spring, Early Fall 8’-12’ None Niobe Red 5-6” Summer 8’-12’ None Pink Champagne Fuschia 5-8” Summer 6’-8’ None Ramona Blue 5-7” Summer 8’-10’ None Rouge Cardinal Bright crimson 4-6” Summer 8’-10’ Hard The President Deep bluish purple 6-8” Spring, Summer 8’-10’ None vitcella Etoile Violette Purple, yellow anthers 2-3” Summer, Fall 8’-14’ Hard Ville de Lyon Red with yellow center 5-6” Summer 8’-12’ Hard Warsaw Nike Purple 4-5” Summer 8’-12’ Hard Will Goodwin Blue, yellow center 5-7” Summer, Fall 8’-10’ None Website: www.whitneygardens.com • Brinnon, WA 98320 • Ph: (800) 952-2404 • Fx: (360) 796-3556 Email: info@whitneygardens.com
