| Design Ideas | Clematis is perhaps the most beautiful of all vines for training onto vertical treillage. This pastel hued beauty belongs in courtyards and near outdoor living spaces where the blossoms can be enjoyed close up and the light colored blooms will catch the moonlight. They are gorgeous spiraled up wood posts and classical Greek style columns. One traditional use that is often found in English gardens is to coax the vine into the branches of long dead trees for natural arbor. They are also used as ground covers to cascade down banks and slopes, sprawl into shrubbery and to dangle off retaining wall edges. |

| Companion Plants | Japanese Maple (Acer); Climbing Rose (Rosa); Daylily (Hemerocallis); Hydrangea (Hydrangea); Butterfly Bush (Buddleja) |
| Care | Thrives in well-drained, lightly alkaline soil, with roots sheltered and top growth in the sun. Mulch to conserve moisture. Water deeply, regularly in first growing season to establish root system; reduce frequency once established. Feed regularly beginning in spring. Remove spent blooms to promote continuous bloom. Provide trellis or arbor support. |
