Thompson & Morgan Thompson & Morgan Clematis Ville De Lyon 7Cm Potted Plant X 1

Clematis 'Ville de Lyon' is one of the late, large flowering clematis varieties, producing a vibrant and long-lasting display of deep purple-red blooms. Flowers appear from mid-summer and continue into autumn, making it a reliable choice for extending seasonal colour. Ideal for growing in patio pots, trained against walls or fences, or at the back of a border to add height and drama. Plant clematis deeply in fertile, moist but well-drained soil, setting the crown 7. 5cm (3”) below soil level to encourage strong basal growth. Clematis dislike very wet or very dry soils, so enrich with compost or well-rotted manure as needed. Suitable for both garden borders and large patio containers with a soil-based compost. Train onto trellis, wires, or climbing frames, and feed and water generously through the growing season. Mulch in spring to protect roots and retain soil moisture. Pruning group 3: Cut back all stems in spring to a pair of healthy buds around 20cm (8”) above ground level, as this variety flowers on the current season’s growth.
