Never grew clematis before, would like to try growing some, really like the blue ones, but I am open to any color 😀 Anyone have any seed pods from their Clematis they'd like to bless me with.

For the wages of sin is death, but the god ft of eternal life along with God's favor and peace, is found in Jesus Christ!

Hello Allizabeth,
Do you know what are you asking for? There are many clematis tribes. They have different growth habits and seed germination times. If you talking about blue large flowered, then you have to be really patient. In average it takes about couple years for those seeds to just germinate. Then you need up to 5-10 years wait for the plants to produce flowers. Some other clematises germinate quite easy, like tangutica and can be invasive. Nonvinig clematises germinate easy too. If you have never grown a clematis before and want blue large flowered just buy one at the local nursery (they usually on clearance now) or from the web (f.e. Donahue clematis, or Brushwood, or SilverStarVinery). If you want a success story - buy the one with the biggest root system. If you like to nurture you plants and watch them grow (and die sometimes) buy a package of bare roots from Costco or Lowes in spring. But if you still want the seeds let us know exactly what kind of clematis you wish to try. Good Luck.

Thank you for all that information, i do ministry work, so my finance is limited, so i am not able to go out and purchase this and that, and most of the plants i have is either from propagating or seeds, God is good and He has been most faithful in providing them too.
I have seen pictures of the clematis and they look so pretty, they are suppose to be very fragrant too, i guess to grow them from seeds takes a lot of patience, i do know if they will even make it in this las vegas desert heat.. anyway, thank you so much for all the info.
Mishkab, i don't know if you are a believer of Jesus, but it is important to grow in the grace and knowledge of Christ, He is our source of salvation and in Him rest God's peace and covering [protection] over our lives..

Thank you again.
God bless you and yours
