Presented by Linda Beutler. What makes a clematis garden-worthy (and other plants, too, such as tall bearded iris and daylilies, but that way madness lies…) beyond having beautiful flowers? More than ever, Linda has been looking at the whole plant. Does the plant pout after flowering? Is it possible through pinching and pruning to make a given clematis bushier, or does it always want to be leggy? How often can one get it to rebloom, or if once blooming, how long is the blooming period? Does the plant look bad (aging, worn out foliage, bare legs, or mildew) while in full bloom? Linda will answer these questions, and more.
