clematis planting
If you buy-in the best widget in the world, then make a cock-up with the installation, its your reputation (and sometimes more) that suffers, not your supplier :-) -- Tony Morgan It pays to realise that planting advice given is always of a "one size fits all" type, the fact that you have manage perfectly well for 47 years to acheive success does not alter the fact that the majority of clematis grown from cuttings benefit from deep planting, this whether it is wet or not, and I certainly never think twice about burying new green stems and leaves. Although I can not claim 47 years experiance, I suspect I have grown and planted more clematis than you have, your comments were valid, it is just that I do not think you should have rubbished the perfectly sound advice being given, adding a note of caution would have been enough. -- Charlie, gardening in Cornwall. http://www.roselandhouse.co.uk Holders of National Plant Collection of Clematis viticella (cvs) |
