Default coffee grounds?

i was told to surround the base of my clematis with coffee grounds?
is that a good thing?

thanks,

I am not too sure about the needs of clematis but used coffee grounds are
very useful in the garden. They make a decent slow release fertiliser, add
organic matter to the soil and go ok as a mulch.
