Water: Clematis 'Belle of Woking' prefers humid environments and consistent moisture, needing watering twice a week for optimal growth while tolerating short dry spells. Adequate soil moisture is crucial for enhancing blooms during its growing season.

Fertilize: Enhance clematis 'Belle of Woking''s growth with balanced fertilizers in spring and summer for vigor and blooms. Use high-nitrogen fertilizers every four weeks during growth. Mature plants benefit from monthly balanced feed. Reduce fertilization in fall and withhold in winter to allow clematis 'Belle of Woking' to rest.

Pruning: Clematis 'Belle of Woking' should be pruned before flowering or between late winter and early spring. Remove weak branches for better nutrient allocation. Heavy pruning in late winter/spring promotes growth, while limiting summer pruning aids water circulation. Prune half the branches for a longer blooming season and increasing flowers.

Propagation: Clematis 'Belle of Woking' is a climbing plant with notable double flowers. To propagate, use semi-hardwood cuttings with rooting hormone in well-draining soil. Maintain consistent moisture and warmth for root establishment, and handle gently in a shaded environment to reduce transplant shock when moving outdoors.
