Garden description: Some recent photos. The foxgloves under the clematis are about to bloom. The irises I planted in memory of my father - then forgot to divide the bulbs last year. Cistus (rock rose) and lavender are good for the dryer front section which doesn't get so much water due to roof overhang.

This forum thread has been marked as a question for other MyGarden users to answer. What's your secret for beautiful Clematis? 
Posted 22 Sep 10 8:19 PM
I Have planted numerous clematis over the past 3 years but all (except 2) have eventually died. I wanted them along the back fenceline and started with the NZ native. All I can think is the summers were too hot for them as our soil was once riverbed. I know they like their feet shaded but it didn't seem to help. If you have any tips it would be much appreciated as I just can't grow them. Can you grow from cutting do you know? Thanks, Karen.
