Thompson and Morgan Clematis Montana Mayleen Plant Pot 3L

Transform your garden with Clematis montana 'Mayleen', the 'mile-a-minute' clematis known for its rapid growth and charming attributes. This variety is not only a quick-growing handsome climber but also boasts delightful satin-pink ruffled blooms, making it the best-scented Clematis montana available. Adding to its allure is the sparkling bronze foliage, enhancing the beauty of your outdoor space. With a height of up to 10m and a spread of 3m, this clematis is perfect for training onto trellis, wires, or freestanding climbing frames, providing vertical interest and fragrance to your garden. To grow Clematis montana 'Mayleen' successfully, pot up the plants and grow them on until large enough to plant in their final positions. Choose a sunny or semi-shaded location with moist, fertile, well-drained soil. Position the top of the rootball at a depth of 7.5cm below soil level to encourage new shoots to form from the base of the plant. Clematis thrive when trained onto suitable supports such as trellis or wires. Feed and water frequently throughout the growing season, and prune in summer after flowering by removing any damaged or dead stems and cutting back the remaining stems to a pair of healthy buds to maintain the plant's shape and size. Apply a mulch of well-rotted manure or garden compost in spring to protect the roots and conserve soil moisture. Supplied as 1 x 3 Litre Potted Plant.
