PRUNING CLEMATIS VINES
Group 1 Spring flowering Clematis that bloom only on previous years growth (old wood). Little pruning is required, however if needed, prune right after bloom. C. alpina, montana, and macropetala.
Group 2 Clematis that bloom in spring on old wood: prune out dead branches in early spring, don't remove any live branches. After the plant flowers you can do directional/shaping pruning if needed. Examples are Etoile Violette, Mrs. Cholmondeley, Multi Blue, Nelly Moser, Niobe, Ramona and The President.
 
Group 3 Clematis that bloom in summer and bloom on new wood: cut back hard in late fall or early spring to 8-12" above the ground. This groups includes Contesse De Bouchard, Ernest Markham, Hagley, Jackmanii, Madame Julia Correvon, Rouge Cardinal and many other hybrids.
 
Group 4 (Fall flower only) Clematis that bloom in late summer to fall, on new wood: these can be left until mid- spring when you can see what is alive. 1/3 to 2/3 of the plant should be removed to reinvigorate the plant, leaving the live structure of the plant. More can be removed in real cold winters or if the plant is too large. Sweet Autumn is an example of this group.
