Dee,

Marie is the clematis queen but she is not on this site anymore.
I have several clematis, mot of them in the pots and I do not prune at all. I might cut if they are damaged and the spent flowers but I see no reason to prune here since they do not grow as fast and as profusely as in the temperate climate.
You need to experience for yourself and decide what is the best for you and them.
Good luck.
