Re: Clematis from seeds
Hello Al,
Clematis just require a bit of patience to grow from seed. Plan on one to two
years for germination, around three more for blooms.
You have fresh seed, so you are ahead in that department. Surface sow on the
medium and cover lightly with granite chicken grit. Soak and set aside in the cold
frame. Normally clematis seeds need warm, cold , warm cycles. You can give it a
shot. Nothing germinates this spring, set the pots outside and let them weather
until next spring.
If you have a relatively common clematis you may be better off taking cuttings
this summer.
