The vine is easily pruned to keep it contained. The violet blue flowers, borne in drooping 8-12 racemes, are produced in late sp... (About-garden.com)

Rose and the Clematis

John Howells,
Product Description: The author shows how the climbing rose is the natural companion of the clematis and how, when the two are grown together, the overall effect can be dramatic. The author explains, with the aid of clear step by step illustrated instructions, the effective course of action for success in this increasingly popular area of companion. Written in plain, straightforward language, the author covers every aspect of the subject. As well as details of classification, in which the best plants for the job are discussed, the author provides important seasonal growing information including Autumn and Spring pruning techniques, planting details and invaluable advice on the use of colour. The vexed question of pests and diseases is also dealt with at length. This is an instructive title, of special value to the reader with a limited knowledge of gardening but also containing much to interest the more experienced grower. Written by an enthusiastic amateur grower, with an extensive and practical experience of his suAmazon.com Review: Author John Howells claims that the climbing rose and the clematis are natural planting companions; both have an urge to reach for the sky and the need for the same growing requirements (good, rich soil and a fair amount of water). The rose makes a softer, more beautiful support for the clematis vine than any trellis, and clematis offers a contrast that brings out the beauty of roses. They share the same kind of enemies, so a treatment program for any pest will benefit both. They can also be grown together in pots or beds. Finally, each comes in an array of colors that complement the other--think of a yellow rose such as Golden Showers or Casino set off by the gorgeous purple of a Victoria clematis. Howells makes his case very convincingly with many gorgeous, full-color photographs.

Clematis: A Gardener's Guide to the Genus

Christopher Grey-Wilson,
Product Description: No garden is complete without examples of the genus Clematis. Christopher Grey-Wilson’s Clematis: The Genus is the most comprehensive study of the genus ever undertaken in English. The vigorous montanas and tanguticas, the familiar jackmanii hybrids and rarer plants such as the touch-sensitive Clematis aphylla are all covered in authoritative detail.

Clematis are—perhaps surprisingly—members of the Ranunculaceae or Buttercup family. All the species are covered both in the wild and in cultivation, and illustrated with 100 color photographs. There are also analyses of many of the cultivars. Maps show the distribution of all the species in the wild. The text is accessible to all serious gardeners, as well as the botanist or plant person.
