I have notice with the clematises I have plante this spring...they will grow long spindly vines and sort of slump over. I typically tend to prune these back...I figure it doesn't hurt the plant since they are trying to grow better roots. I have done this a few times...especially with MJC and Blue Angel and HF young and Rosemore. I am guessing it doesn't hurt the plant but I doubt I will see any blooms on these this year. Even though all the above were pruned when planted. What do you suggest when you see these long ones coming up but then not looking so strong?
