Water regularly, keeping the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, especially during the growing season. Allow the top few centimeters of soil to dry out slightly between waterings.

Reduce watering in fall and winter when the plant is less actively growing. Good drainage is crucial to prevent root rot.

Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Remove any dead, damaged, or weak stems. This clematis blooms on old wood, so heavy pruning can reduce flowering.

Light shaping to maintain desired form is acceptable. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage more blooms.

Propagate from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in mid-summer. Select healthy shoots and take cuttings of 10-15 cm, removing the lower leaves.

Dip the cut end in rooting hormone and plant in a well-draining, moist potting mix. Keep in a propagator or cover with a plastic bag.

Repot young plants annually or every two years in spring as needed. Choose a pot one size larger than the current one, ensuring it has ample drainage holes. Use a good quality, well-draining potting mix.

Water thoroughly after repotting and place in a suitable location.
