Clematis planting

Guernsey Donkey2 · 2016-06-15 14:36:53

I am about to plant some clematis - one in the flower bed and one in a huge pot that I have just bought. Question is can I use horse manure mixed with compost, grit and top soil and with a sprinkling of bonemeal to plant them in?

I'd agree with you totally Yvie. Montanas seem happy in pretty much anything! I doubt if I ever fed the ones I had, and they were never watered apart from initally on planting.

It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....

I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
