Clematis can be found in almost any area, since this vine is truly beautiful and unpretentious.
However, before the onset of cold weather, many gardeners make mistakes when preparing plants for winter.
Let's figure out how you definitely shouldn't help clematis.
4 mistakes when working with clematis in autumn
Let's start with the fact that before the onset of cold weather, clematis should not be fed with mullein, bird droppings, green manure or any other mixture containing a lot of nitrogen. Because of this, the plant will begin to build up green mass and may die.
Damaged or dry shoots should not be left for the winter: they must be removed before the onset of winter.
If the flowers have been sick all season, they should not be left to overwinter without being treated against pests and vine diseases.
Also, you cannot leave wintering shoots of clematis on the ground and cover them while the weather is too warm or damp, otherwise you cannot avoid the vine rotting.
