I bought a bunch of clematis last year that have beenin containers (still trying to figure out room in the ground);
At this point only one is showing any growth, I think a Bees Jubilee.
Anyone else in my zone think this is normal?
I think it's 5a . . .
Thanks.
Only one out of 22 clematis has brken dormancy . . .thoughts
hmm I am 5b here in NE Ohio, mine are up and running this year already.
How did you winter them over, I know you said in containers, but where did you place the containers during the winter, if they got the chance to get hit by a freeze they may not come back, but being that one of them is showing lifesigns, it's possible they are just a little slower and not quite ready yet.
Keep them watered and don't give up yet! I hope some more will surprise you!!
