Growing Clematis from Seed
Combine
3 parts seed compost with 1 part sharp sand to create a rich, well-draining
starting mixture for the Clematis seeds. Moisten the mixture before filling the
rooting pots. Fill several 4-inch pots with the mixture, leaving 1/2 inch of
space at the top of each pot.
Sow
one Clematis seed per square inch of surface area in each pot. Gently press the
seed into the surface of the soil. Spread a 1/4-inch-thick layer of the compost
and sand mixture on top of the seeds. Firm the soil.
Set
the pots in a cold greenhouse or in light shade outdoors where they are exposed
to cold temperatures and bright, indirect light. Keep them outdoors over the
winter. Moisten the soil in each pot using a plant mister whenever it feels dry
at a depth of 1/2 inch.
Move
the pots into partial sun when temperatures reach 60 degrees F in spring. Watch
for germination starting two weeks after moving them.
Scoop
out and transplant the clematis seedlings when they reach 2 inches in height.
Transplant them into individual 4-inch pots filled with 3 parts sterile potting
soil and 1 part sharp sand. Take care not to break the long tap root during
transplanting.
Keep
the Clematis seedlings in their individual pots until they reach 6 inches in
height. Place the pots near bright but diffuse light. Keep the soil slightly
moist but not soggy as they grow. Plant the Clematis vines outdoors the
following spring once soil temperatures reach 68 degrees F.
Place
the potted Clematis seeds in the refrigerator for three weeks to cold stratify
if outdoor air temperatures stay above 50 degrees F during the winter.
For
proper care of clematis, clematis vines prefer sunny locations (at least six
hours of sun needed for blooming) but the soil should be kept cool. An easy way
to accomplish this is by planting some type of ground cover or shallow-rooted
perennial plants around the clematis. A 2-inch layer of mulch can also be
incorporated to keep the roots cool and moist.
Your seedling will take at least a year to offer its
first bloom and another three years to become a mature plant. I usually wait
until it blooms before planting it out in the garden. A greenhouse helps.
Store Policies
All seeds will come in a resalable
plastic zip lock bag and placed in a bubble envelope so the seeds are not
damaged by shipping machines. All seed packets contain no fillers or other
weeds or seeds mixed in. Most have been harvested by hand & all test at a
high germination rate.
Seed Information
We guarantee
that all seed orders will contain the quantity ordered. Unlike many sellers who
sell seeds by weight, all seed our counts are almost always correct, as the
seeds are packaged and counted by hand. Seed packages are all double checked to
insure accuracy. We do our best and will often add extra seeds.
We are a seller that caters to
experienced gardeners. (germination and plant care information is readily
available online. Most of our listings include germination instructions, so we
do not ship growing instructions.
All My Seeds Are Sold Fresh So You Can Plant them Anytime within 2
years from Purchase
***Note: It is normal for tropical seed germination to be sporadic from as
little as 30 days to 6 months or more- so patience is required. Buyers should
do their own research for plant uses if needed.
BE PREPARED – Some Seed can be somewhat difficult to germinate – much patience and
time may be required – please don’t be wondering why the seeds have not
germinated after short periods of time. This is normal. Several months will be
needed for some seed.
Some seeds require some experience in growing. We provide germination
guidance and recommend that you do some research before ordering if you feel
unsure. Growing plants from seed is supposed to be fun. Sometimes it is
successful and sometimes not- this is the way it is with gardening. Because we
are not there to plant them, we cannot be responsible for germination failure
due to improper planting or climate conditions. We will always send you viable
seeds
Seed is a
live product which depends on many important grower skills such as proper
planting time, seed depth, type of soil, watering, light intensity, proper use
of fertilizers, weed controls, fungicides, insecticides, soil conditions, and
reasonable weather during the growing period. These factors are totally out of
the sellers control, and germination and growing results are the buyer’s
responsibility and risk.
