My experience is limited with Clematis but I know that in general, when you plant or move a potted clematis, the roots should be shaded. For example a real thick layer of mulch, or a location where the roots are shaded and the plant itself gets sun. I have mine planted right next to the deck stairs covered by several inches of leaves/mulch. I also remember reading that the roots shouldn't dry out. Yours also may be adjusting to a temperature fluctuation having spent the colder months at somewhat of a steady temp, and now being outside a wider temp swing..that one is a stab in the dark!
