watering
Water your Pink Anemone Clematis on a weekly basis during the growing season - usually between spring through summer. For established plants, water when the top 1 or 2 inches of soil is dry. For plants grown in containers, check daily as those dry out more quickly. Though this variety prefers moist soil, it should not be overwatered. Water the soil near the stem and avoid wetting the foliage to protect it from diseases. Reduce watering in the fall and stop completely once the plant has gone dormant in winter.
sunlight
Pink Anemone Clematis plants thrive in full sun or partial shade, with full sun being ideal. The plant will bloom profusely when it receives 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight each day, ideally throughout the morning. This plant grows best in climates with warm summers, so the best time of day for sun exposure is during the morning or early afternoon. In cooler climates and areas with less regular sunshine, provide as much direct sunlight as possible.
pruning
Pruning of the pink anemone clematis (Clematis montana var. rubens) should take place in late winter or very early spring. The amount of pruning depends on the desired look and blossom quantity. For a smaller plant, it is best to prune it back to the desired height and crown shape, but for a larger plant, it may need to be more heavily pruned back, cutting away all of the feeble growth and any dead or damaged shoots as needed. If you would like abundant blooms, pruning climatis to 1–2 buds from the previous year’s growth will help encourage maximum bloom. If you would prefer a more compact shape, pruning back to 2–3 large buds may be best.
Season
