To be botanically correct, clematis should be listed under their cultivar name, however we feel it is easier to group certain types of clematis together. For example 'Helsingborg' can be found listed in the Atragene Group; 'Madame Julia Correvon' in the Viticella Group; 'Duchess of Albany' in the Texensis Group, etc. We now group the spring flowering cultivars together, thus the alpinas, koreanas and macropetalas appear under their 'family' heading 'Atragene Group'. If you are selecting a clematis for spring interest in the garden, it is much easier to have all those 'types' listed together, rather than having to search the entire catalogue. You will also find other types of clematis brought together into groups with a brief description of their growth, habit and cultural requirements . Descriptions The details of the colour, flowering months and heights, etc. given in this catalogue are purely a guide. Actual results will vary depending on position, soil type, feeding and geographic location of where you are growing the plant. In addition to these physical influences on plant behaviour, please bear in mind that we all have different perceptions of colour, and even those who see a colour in the same way may describe it in different terms. All photographs in this catalogue are provided as a guide only. Aspect Indicates what position the cultivar prefers i.e. full sun, partial shade, shade or any. The majority of clematis will flower better in a sunny, or partially shaded aspect but please note that the scented cultivars have a better perfume if grown in a sunny position. Pruning There are three pruning groups - Tidy, Light & Hard. These pruning techniques are explained in our 'Clematis Care Guide', a copy of which is provided when a clematis is purchased from us. For some cultivars the pruning can be either Light or Hard. Hard pruning will delay the flowering period by approximately six to eight weeks, but will keep the plant more compact, and the pruning is easier! For example 'Allanah' :If lightly pruned will grow 10' - 12' in height and bloom June to September. If hard pruned will grow 6' - 8' and flower August to November. Growing In Pots All clematis could be grown in pots providing the container is large enough, and adequate drainage is provided. The larger the clematis, the larger the pot needs to be! Growing clematis in containers can be useful for positions where ground planting is unsuitable. In the catalogue you will find those clematis that we recommend for best performance in a pot indicated with the appropriate symbol (please see key).
