Buy Rain Dance Bush Clematis online. This hybrid by Walters Gardens features flowers as large as those on a clematis vine. Beautiful indigo blue flowers with darker midribs and lighter margins face outward from the plant. This plant will benefit from support from staking, a garden obelisk, or neighboring plants. Rain Dance blooms first on new growth in midsummer and a second time with smaller flowers on new shoots in the fall. Prune all shoots back to the previous year's growth in later winter or early spring. The spring blooms will be eliminated, but late summer flowers should still produce. Alternatively, prune back 1/3 of stems on a yearly basis to 6-9" above several well-developed buds.

Interesting Notes About RAIN DANCE BUSH CLEMATIS
Clematis can be grown in full sun or light shade, but its base and roots must be completely shaded. You may need to plant a small shrub or large perennial directly in front of its root ball to keep it cool and shaded. A thick layer of mulch will also help to keep the soil moist. This vine prefers to be grown in moist, well-drained, slightly alkaline soil. Adding lime to the soil will help to provide these conditions. When planting clematis, it is important to plant it 3" deeper than it was in the original pot. Bury the first set of entire leaves to encourage the production of strong shoots from below soil level and to discourage clematis wilt.
