Default Growing Clematis from seed? Then read this

"David W.E. Roberts" wrote:

Hi,
I have been gradually increasing my population of Clematis, mainly on the
North side of the house, and some are still flowering whilst others are
over.
One particularly produced a myriad of fluffy seeds which dropped in and
around the pot within which it is growing.
This prompted a thought:
"If the Clematis produces loads of seeds each year, why is my garden not
knee deep in Clematis seedlings?".
Has anyone grown Clematis from home produced seed?
Just wondering if it is possible - I presume you could get all sorts of
wierd and wonderful crosses.
TIA

You are all clearly in need of this site:

Mind you - some seed may take more than a year to germinate.
Best of luck,
Roger.
