#ProPlantTips for Care

Plant Chevalier Clematis where the stems and leaves get full sun, but the roots are shaded. Mulch is very helpful, but should be pulled back away from directly touching the stems.

If you will use it as a climber, it’s best to secure the growing support firmly before you plant. These lovely plants resent having their roots disturbed.

Use drip irrigation to keep container-grown Clematis happy and healthy. Be sure to use mulch in your containers, too.
