In the garden

Clematis Jie ('Evipo084'PBR) sits within the genus Clematis and the family Ranunculaceae and is used principally as a climbing plant for vertical planting. It is deciduous and produces its display between May and September. The variety is appropriate wherever a trained climber is required: walls, fences, pergolas, obelisks, trained into trees, containers or mixed borders. Select a site offering full sun or partial shade; the plant adapts to north-, south-, east- or west-facing aspects and tolerates both exposed and sheltered locations. It will grow in chalk, clay, loam or sand and prefers soil that is moist but well-drained, and will take a range of soil pH values from acid to alkaline to neutral. Flowering extends from May to September, so expect a sustained season of blooms. The H5 rating means it is hardy across much of the UK climate. Support the stems as it climbs and locate it where the base can be kept comfortably moist without waterlogging. As a deciduous climber, it will lose its leaves over winter and then renew flowering growth into the spring and summer months from May to September.
