Three types of pruning for Clematis

Three types of pruning for Clematis

1. Spring pruning

Type III clematis usually bloom later, usually in summer or fall. Pruning should be more extensive in spring because it has a long time to recover its growth. If the plant is not heavily pruned at this time, it will grow too dense, affecting internal ventilation and light transmission, and its growth will gradually decline. Cut off most of the branches, leaving only 3-7 nodes.

2. Pruning after flowering

This type of clematis usually blooms twice a year. If it blooms in spring, pruning can be done in June. If it is a relatively strong plant, it needs heavy pruning after flowering, which can promote the growth of new branches. If it blooms in summer, pruning time should be postponed accordingly. In addition, the remaining flowers should be removed in time to avoid wasting nutrients.

3. Second round of pruning after flowering

Usually in September, clematis will bloom for the second round of flowers. After the flowers, the new branches can be pruned. Cut it off at the second node to allow it to flower again. Varieties that bloom earlier are usually pruned in mid-August and will continue to bloom in October.
