Hello friends,

I got Bee's Jubilee a couple days ago in a gallon pot, I don't really want to dig in my flower bed because I may hurt roots of the other clematis nearby, so I have to keep this one in the pot, will it be OK to stay in the gallon pot, or should I move it to a bigger pot ?

Thank you,
Nan

Nobody can help ?

I only have one in a pot and it has had its problems. Others do grow them in containers so I hope they'll come along to help you.

Arlene !

How long do you plan to keep it in a one gallon and is the root ball small right now? I only hold mine in one gallon for a while until I decide where to plant and if it ends up staying in there a while, I pot it up into bigger pots so as not to risk stunting it in any way and I also don't want to risk it overheating or getting dried out. I do grow a couple permanently in containers but they are the largest sized as I can get them.
Bee's Jubilee can be a big plant so eventually it should get planted to reach it's full potential.

Suzanne, I will try to plant it on the flower bed then...

Just saw this. If not planted yet I think you can keep in a large pot through the summer. I like those insulated pots made by Southern Patio.Keep it mulched, add drainage like expanded shale and pot it with the crown ~2 inches deep. I would keep it in part shade.

Hi Anna,

Thanks and how you doing ? I can't find anything that showed me about Clematis in a pot much, so I finally gave in and planted in a kind of tight spot, and hoping it will be OK or I may move it next year... Thank you for your help !

I sometimes plant 2 in one hole so I wouldn't worry too much

They don't take up much foot space so you should do fine.

So far Bee's Jubilee doing fine, did not get bigger yet but add more buds and bloom...

Great progress!

so far Ms Jubilee seems happy keep on having buds and blooms...
