CLEMATIS Belle of Woking (STARTER PLANT) PENERIAL VINE

The Clematis 'Bell of Working' is a stunning flowering perennial known for its fully double, rich violet-blue blossoms. This variety is winter hardy and produces large, bell-shaped flowers throughout the summer season. It's a perfect choice for trellises and pergolas, and is the perfect addition to any garden. 'Belle of Woking' is pruned as Group 2

Clematis can be trained to climb a wall, trellis, fence, arbor, porch, lamppost or other stationary structure. They provides good architectural height and framework for small gardens. They can also be planted to sprawl over and through shrubs, scramble over old stumps or simply as a ground cover in conjunction with other flowering perennials. Containers.

Group 1 – Flowers only on old wood (previous year). Prune after spring flowering.
Group 2 – Flowers on both old and new wood. Typically, little pruning should be done for woody-stemmed members of this Group. If cut to the ground or pruned in fall or spring, flowering will be reduced or delayed but not prevented.
Group 3 – Flowers only on new wood. Can be cut to the ground in fall or spring.

It thrives in moist, well-drained soils, in full sun or part shade. Ideally, Clematis prefer having their 'heads in the sun and their feet in the shade'. Keep the roots cool and shaded by other plants or add a layer of pebbles or flat stones at the base.
