Water: Clematis koreana thrives in a moist environment without standing water. Check soil moisture by touch; water well when dry. In spring, increase watering due to rapid growth, but always ensure proper drainage to prevent root rot, especially in rainy conditions.

Fertilize: Fertilization for clematis koreana depends on its size: nitrogen during growth and post-flowering, phosphate from bud to bloom, and constant potassium. Use low-concentration fertilizer multiple times. During dormancy, apply organic fertilizer and cover soil with compost to enhance nutrients and protect roots from frost.

Pruning: Clematis koreana should be pruned before flowering or between late winter and early spring. Light pruning helps maintain nutrient efficiency and flower quality. For late bloomers, cutting back to one-third height promotes new growth. Aim to leave thicker branches for a longer blooming season; avoid excessive summer pruning.
