Re: Clematis from my garden.

I've had quite a few clematis plants, they last 1 or 2 years then die and I've no idea why. I've decided not to bother any more.

They do like their roots kept cool, low planting around the base to shield or even some white stone and gravel to reflect the sun. Our best one is in a large stone trough
