The search feature for clematis forums has been disabled and so I wanted to see if anyone has done it or is doing it. Or if it can be done. I just ordered a few more to jump start indoors for next season. I have many kinds of Clematis in the garden, and wondered about just keeping these inside to befriend the Morning Glories. I have an HPS 1,000 watt light but wonder about the impact of total lack of seasons.... I could allow them to go dormant in the garage for a brief time each winter in their containers but am curious as to specific schedules. I'm checking around but thought I'd also check with my DG experts as well. A few of the most mature Clematis I've bought came from an out of the way place on the outskirts where one would go to buy bulk mulch and rock. A couple of older ladies had cared for them and sold them to me for $17 each. These huge vines looked like they had been growing and blooming and thriving for years inside these large heated greenhouses. They did have some wilt first year in, but I wondered if they'd been better off undisturbed. so inside permanent Clematis displays.... any thoughts? Thanks. |
