Feeding clematis
"me" me@home wrote in message ... Sorry if this has been asked a million times... How often are you supposed to feed your clematis plants, and what would the best food be. So far I have been using 5-9-8 'So-Green' vine & clematis food. Thanks, Luca Clematis gurus suggest the intial fertilizing in late February or March when the vines are pruned and again in June or dose with a liquid fertilizer at three week intervals during the growing season. Personally, I fertilize about now (I use an organic rose fertilizer) and that's it. And I don't necessarily fertilize all my clematis vines. I skip the very vigorous ones like Sweet Autumn, armandii and the montanas, otherwise the monsters would overtake and engulf the entire garden. I do mulch with compost annually, though. pam - gardengal |

I fertilize my roses and clematis at the same time, in spring and again in late summer, using rose fertilizer. -- Julie http://albums.photo.epson.com/j/AlbumList?u=3008861 -- Julie http://albums.photo.epson.com/j/AlbumList?u=3008861 |
