Too many people just dig a hole. Proper preparation is part of success. I'd add bone meal, compost and manure to the soil where the clematis will grow. Some devout gardeners will cut off the current growth but, like Chelle, I like to be sure of the color and the name, so I allow it to bloom then cut it back.
