i have a clematis (Nelly Moser or similar) planted on the west side of
my house. First year last year -- and growth was light, not vigorous.
I have since read in a gardening book that this variety should be
planted on the north side of the house, since it will fade in hot sun.
Would the same apply to "Jackmanii"? What variety works best on west
side (i do shade the roots) -- and I am not interested in a white
vine....

clematis are slow growws the first year-so give them time.
They shoulkd be planted deep and in a soil that is cool and moist--but Not
wet.
they like shade at the bottom of the plant and sun at the top-so plant behind
a shrud or something-- mulch them well with a summer mulch too. I have fem
growin g ypu thru some Peonies onto a fence also one giant one that grows 25
stems 12 feet tall ever year on a utility pole guid wire0bot when it blooms it
blooms!!!!
