Knowing what to do with clematis in June can be a game-changer in your climbing plant. Get the care right this month, and you'll be rewarded with bigger and better blooms and a generally healthier plant.

Even if you are already familiar with the basics of growing a clematis, these garden jobs to do in June are essential when it comes to ensuring a healthy and vigorous plant. 'June is a really important month for clematis as many varieties are either coming into flower, finishing their first flush or putting on lots of fresh, new growth,' says Richard Barker at LBS Horticulture. 'In June, focus on making sure your clematis has plenty of light; that their roots are kept cool and moist; that they receive consistent watering and that they have good support. The flowering of the plant will almost always suffer if one of those things is missed.'
