Gorgeous, golden bells (4cm) proliferate on this vigorous climber from summer to autumn, they even have a soft, sweet scent. Dry tolerant, long blooming and easy care.

The blooms are followed by whimsical, gold to cream fluffy seed heads that can remain ornamental into winter.

You can grow Golden Clematis up a support or tree, or let it scramble along the ground. It is less fussy about soil than most Clematis and will grow in pretty much any that is well drained.

Pruning is simple for Clematis tangutica, just cut them back to around 20cm in early spring, pruning Group 3 (flowers on new wood).

Clematis make a statement of beauty without being overpowering. They are easy to grow and ideal for beginners, requiring little in the way of care and offering bountiful rewards.

Generally, Clematis grow well where Roses grow well, and they are also excellent in combination. You can use similar colours for a lovely blend, or create some drama with complimentary shades. In fact, Clematis intermingle well with many different plants – trees and shrubs especially as they can be used for climbing in a beautiful symbiosis. They really are versatile, and what’s, more, you can grow them in pots.

The old adage is to plant your clematis so their 'head' is in the sun and their 'feet' are in the shade. In other words they like their root zone to be cool and protected, and the stems to grow up into the sunshine. You can protect the root zone with mulch and/or by using other plants to shield them from the sun.

Grow Clematis in humus rich, moist, well drained soil. They need good drainage, or the roots may rot. Plant so they will receive around six hours sun a day and are shielded from the hot afternoon rays. To perform at their best they should be fertilised well, to do this you can use a Rose Fertiliser every three months or so when they are actively growing.
