I took stem cuttings TT , cut the stem between two joints , Two of those are off those last two new Clematis that I bought , the Wisley cream and the Freckles .....
I,m having better luck this way than in the water , two of them were in water but are not so far forward ....
Yours did well in water didn't they Sandra , perhaps it's all down to the variety and when you take the cutting .........
Thanks Holly you can never have enough of these :o)

I'm glad it's not just me Carole with the water method , I like to get them in soil , you can see something happening then ....... :o)

Good luck. I understand they are difficult to grow. I hope you succeed.

Well done. I find that The smaller clematis seem to be easier taking to rooting that the larger varieties. Does anyone else find this?
