Clematis plants are definitely among the most popular vines grown in the home landscape. They feature woody vines as well as evergreen varieties. They also vary in flower shape and color and bloom times. So to grow them well you have to stick to the specific type you have chosen, but most of them have the same requirements.

Clematis plants are known as plants that love their feet in the shade and their faces in the sun. This means that the soil should be kept cool even if the vines are in sunny locations. So you can plant some ground cover around the clematis. Additionally, a 2-inch layer of mulch can keep the roots cool and moist.
