Clematis grown in containers are a beautiful way to add height to a patio or courtyard garden. Choose a container 18" (45cm) approx. diameter for a single clematis plant plus support. For larger containers consider planting two or more plants per container. When choosing a container, Terracotta or wood are the best materials.
Alternatively, choose a host plant and dig a hole about 18 inches (45cm) deep.
