Vining hybrids are best sited in locations where the flowering parts of the vine are in sun to part shade but the roots are shaded. Some light afternoon shade is usually beneficial in hot and humid summer climates such as the St. Louis area. Clematis vines need a trellis or other support on which to grow. Roots should be kept cool shaded and uniformly moist. Root areas may be shaded with perennials annuals or small shrubs. A thick root mulch is appreciated. Do not allow soils to dry out.
