Default Clematis cuttings - what happens next?

Hi,
I'm hoping someone can tell me if this is normal.
I took some cuttings from a clematis a few months ago. They developed
roots so I've potted them on into small pots and since then they have
developed more roots but nothing above the soil. All I have is the
original stem and leaf of the cutting. It must be more than a month
since I potted them on. Will they not put on growth until next Spring?
It is an early flowering type.
Thanks
Jane

It would have been better not to have moved them but they may grow a
shoot before autumn, but if they don't it is extremely unlikely they will
survive the winter, Clematis cuttings are very easy - getting them past
the first winter is not!

Is there any way to tell if you should take a nodal cutting or an
internodal one?
