Funny! The Liberation wasn't the monster. Liberation is the largest of all the clematises I own.

I'll attach a photo of montana Grandiflora - tons of blooms but grows by leaps and bounds and I do not and will not feed it! Here's a portion of it. This year I cut it back by 8' on one side and just as much on the other side. I'll be doing that annually. Imagine if I fed it!

It has already choked out the Pink Champagne you can spot at the right side in this photo. I have to keep trimming it so it doesn't choke out Liberation on the opposite side from where the Pink Champagne was.

Regular old manure (either cow or horse - I'd have to check the bag) for all the other clem's.
