DETAILS

Care Instructions
Clematis orientalis thrives in temperate climates with moderate temperatures. It requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth and should be watered when the soil partially dries out. Maintain moderate humidity levels and ensure the plant is protected from extreme weather conditions.
Soil
This plant prefers well-draining loamy soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Ensure the soil is rich in organic matter to support healthy growth. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot.
Fertilizer
Use a balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10. Fertilize the plant during the growing season, typically in spring and summer, to promote vigorous growth and flowering.
Repotting
Repot Clematis orientalis every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its container. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage and fresh loamy soil. Repotting is best done in early spring before the growing season begins.
Propagation
Propagate Clematis orientalis through stem cuttings or layering. Take cuttings in late spring or early summer and root them in a well-draining soil mix. Layering can be done by bending a low-growing stem to the ground and covering it with soil until roots develop.
Pruning
Prune Clematis orientalis in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Remove dead or weak stems and shape the plant to encourage healthy growth and flowering. Regular pruning helps maintain the plant's size and vigor.
Toxicity
Clematis orientalis is toxic to pets and humans if ingested. All parts of the plant contain irritants that can cause skin irritation and gastrointestinal distress. Handle with care and keep away from children and pets.
