These clematis prefer a good quality soil with high nutrient levels and a soil which is moist but free-draining. Improve planting holes with at least 2 forkfuls of well rotted manure or garden compost and if you don't have these use a 'Soil Improver' compost. The improvement material added should be placed under the root of the plant not around it. This encourages the roots to grow downwards and remain deep and cool during summer.There is no need to deadhead these clematis, however if they appear to have finished flowering earlier than you expected, there is no harm in giving them a light trim to encourage new growth and a secondary flowering late in the autumn.

Long flowering variety boasting vibrant flowers!
Flowering over a long period from July to September the ‘Dropmore Scarlet’ is a fierce honeysuckle with long, trumpet-shaped red-orange flowers, sometimes followed by vibrant red berries. With exception to the bitterest of winters this Honeysuckle is robust and semi-evergreen. The 'Dropmore Scarlet' is excellent for rapidly covering walls and fences or unsightly features in the garden. Despite being unscented, this vigorous climber more than compensates with its flame-coloured blooms and blue-green leaves.

Height: 4m (13'). Spread: 2m (7').

Fabulously fragrant, large, tubular, white flowers, ageing to yellow, from July to September and oval, mid-green leaves.
