Make sure you provide it with something to climb on from day one. A clematis vine does not climb by twining around something, as a pole bean or a morning glory does. It climbs by wrapping its leaf stems around something.Because these leaf stems are not very long, anything that's more than about 1/2 inch in diameter is too wide for the leaf stem to twist around.The easiest things for a clematis to grab onto, are twine, fishing line, wire, thin branches, wooden dowels or steel rods.hen selecting a clematis for your garden, you'll want to think about a couple things, which include its mature height, flower form and color. If you have room for a vigorous 10- or 20-foot clematis vine, there are many wonderful cultivars that will fit the bill.
Now, if your Clematis is in Groups 1 or 2, you should also do a special second-year pruning. Not everyone does this, but if you want a lush, many-stemmed, bloom-happy plant, the second year you should prune all stems back to about 3 feet from the ground in late winter/early spring.
