Clematis need their roots to be cool and their heads in the sun, so plant with roots shaded by other plants. Moreover, they will add height to the garden or provide colour to a plain background, such as a fence or wall.

- As Clematis like cool roots, try to position so that the roots will be shaded from the sun by another plant.
