Clematis 'Cezanne'

Also known as: Traveller's joy 'Cezanne'

Clematis 'Cezanne' is aptly named for French Impressionist painter Paul Cezanne since its lovely pale violet flowers are strongly reminiscent of the pastel shades of Impressionist art. This elegant and subtle hybrid contrasts with other members of the clematis family that have brighter violet-pink flowers. These fragrant and showy flowers attract butterflies and hummingbirds.

Water: Clematis 'Cezanne' thrives in humid environments and requires consistent moisture. Water it twice a week to keep soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Adequate watering is especially crucial during its growing season to support robust growth and flowering.

Fertilize: For optimal growth of clematis 'Cezanne', use balanced fertilizers in spring and switch to high-nitrogen formulas in summer. Apply monthly, using one tablespoon per gallon of water, ensuring soil is moist beforehand. Reduce feeding in fall and skip winter; dilute fertilizers to avoid root burn.

Pruning: Clematis 'Cezanne' should be pruned before flowering or in late winter to early spring, focusing on weak branches. Heavy pruning can encourage new growth. For late-blooming types, reduce height to one-third, leaving thicker branches. This promotes longer blooming seasons and increased flowers annually.

Propagation: Clematis 'Cezanne' is a climbing perennial with a long blooming period. For propagation, use 10-15 cm softwood cuttings from healthy, non-flowering stems with several nodes. Apply rooting hormone, ensure a moist but well-draining medium, and provide indirect light until established.
