Hi everyone,
My kind mother bought me 2 winter flowering and one spring flowering
clematis plants for my birthday a couple of weeks ago. They say not
to plant out until the risk of frost has passed so I currently have
them indoors. However, they are starting to grow quickly, and with
nothing to climb up, I am worried for their health.
What should I do?
Ian

Indoors is too warm, stand them out, and bring them in each night frost
is forecast, if you let us know which varieties you have I will endever
to be more specific

Thanks Charlie... I don't know why I didn't think of that myself.
