| Hi,
I moved into a new house this fall and am starting a new garden. I have orderd a Daniel Deronda and Jackmanii. I am trying to decide where to put them and perhaps what other vines to grow with them.
I was thinking of growing some annual vines with them.
Some of the annual vines I am considering are:
Or, Should I just grow the clematis on their own trellis with no other vines? Any advice would be great! |

| since Clems take so long to get established I would not plant an annual vine with them. The roots would not do well with the competition. Daniel Deronda is a type II for pruning and Jackmanii is a III so I would not plant them together. I prune my DD as a III most of the time but I have a longer growing season than you. It blooms twice a year for me, it is my longest bloomer I just love it. |

| Thanks a lot for the advice. That is exactly what I was wondering, even though I didn't explain it very directly. :) I am really looking forward to the Daniel Deronda. As a side note, do you think either of them will bloom this first year? |
