How to grow clematis in pots – expert tips for planting and caring for these beautiful container blooms

Clematis 'Omoshiro'

Q: I love clematis as there are so many different flower shapes, sizes and colors to choose from. I would like to plant them in pots to add something pretty to my outdoor seating space and use their height to make it feel a little more private. Are there any tips for growing clematis in containers I need to know to keep them looking their best?

A: Clematis are a great choice and one of the best climbing plants for your backyard as there's such a wide variety to choose from. Growing them this way is similar to how you'd grow them in the ground and lets those with limited garden space enjoy these beautiful plants too.
