Clematis Question

How exciting! I usually remove the plastic ties, but its often impossible to remove the trllis, so I leave it until the end of the season and then remove it. I got one today too Dawn....So lovely aren’t they. I hope they grow well. Lots of water and feed regularly...maxicrop or growmore, anything really. Give them a good sprinkle of pelleted food in spring and protect the stems from slugs and snails and also watch out for Earwigs. They are another cause of tragedy! Good luck!

Karen, I wanted Blue Angel as you suggested but it wasn't available when I ordered .... Next time ?. Thanks for your valued info, a great catalogue came with the order but no mention of the ties, I will do as you advice, thank you. Which one did you get?

Beautiful looking healthy plant Dawn , I take my plastics off and plant it a good 6" into the ground ... :o)

Amy!!!!! Hello! I was going to message you to see if you’re ok :)

What a shame they didn't have Blue Angel. As you say...next time. I got another Patio one (short growing) called 'Tranquilite', its pale blue and semi-double.

We're fine Dawn , just drained from everything thats happened this last year hopefully we're getting over it and returning to normal ( whatever that is )Lol ..

Tranquilite sounds great Karen, I will look it up.
Awesome Amy, poor you! Good to hear you're ok, sounds like you need a holiday.

We've had our son & grandsons here Dawn I could really do with a holiday now Lol x

Haha Amy, the boys must be getting very grown up now, I think a holiday would work wonders for you x
