Tie Dye Clematis - Large 6" Flowers - Dark Purple/Silver Streaks - 2.5" Pot

I could not find clematis at our local nurseries last spring or early this spring, so I decided to buy this purple tie dye and a Jacmani . I thought I was just wasting 30.00 because what was the likely hood of 2.5 inch plant surviving?Surprise! They arrived, spent a week in my greenhouse and are thriving now out on my patio in 6 inch pots. I am most pleased.

I am attaching photo of the rooted cutting as it appeared when it was shipped to me. It has one living stem less than 1” tall, and it has one taller but completely dead stem that has a jagged edge at the top like it’s been torn off. The plant was also root bound, with roots having grown tangled around each other inside the pot and some roots coming out of the bottom of the pot. I gently untangled the roots and planted it in a spot with optimal conditions, and where I can pay close attention to it. I hope it survives. Based on its tiny size, fragile condition, and prior neglect, it’s certainly not a plant one could expect to survive without major coddling. Large, 6” flowers? Maybe in five years, if the plant makes it. I’m (Update: the third photo is the plant three weeks after planting. I don’t know if you can see in the photo, but although the leaves are still green, the one remaining stem coming up from the root is shriveled and brown. I don’t think the plant is going to make it. It is located in a spot right by my front door, so that I see it and make sure it is tended to every time I go out the door. Assuming the plant dies, it is not from lack of care and trying on my part. I’m giving it a one star review for that reason.)

Plants die in a 3 week period

I order two from same seller, one is alive the " multi blue " at this momentThe tie Dye dead, I think it is not a health one compare to the other.Anyway I will order an other one to take a try.I guess maybe order the larger or older plant will have a better chance to grow.

Great mature plants with strong roots and new growth. Packaged perfectly- I have no complaints! Will for sure order again.

It is not growing . I checked where it should be as far as growth it’s not there

It probably was me but I kept it in the original container, watered it and put it in a sunny spot on the deck. It did revive but then soon started drooping so I planted it outside and within days it was gone. Very small to start with, like a seedling. It might be that I lack the skill but am not sure what else I should have done.

Recieved a healthy clematis vine to plant. As a gardener one knows it can take a couple of years before a clamatis will bloom. Per the pictures, it's a beautiful plant. Hoping it turns out as lovely as the picture!
