Clematis Staked is a live flowering vine plant sold in a 1.3-gallon (5.1-liter) container with a stake included for climbing support. Known as the "queen of the vines," clematis is one of the most popular and spectacular flowering perennials, prized for its large, showy blooms that can reach up to 10 inches across. Flowers come in a stunning range of colors including purple, pink, white, blue, and yellow depending on the variety, with bloom times ranging from spring through autumn.

This staked container plant is ready to grow and climb, attaching to supports via twining leaf petioles. Ideal for trellises, arbors, fences, pergolas, and other vertical structures. Hardy in USDA Zones 4–8, clematis thrives in full sun with at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day. Plant in well-draining soil with a neutral pH, setting the crown approximately 4 inches below the soil surface to stay cool and encourage branching. Mulch around the base to keep roots moist and protected. Once established, this long-lived perennial will provide decades of seasonal bloom and is attractive to hummingbirds, bees, and butterflies.

Water regularly during the first growing season to establish strong roots. Fertilize in spring with a balanced fertilizer and prune according to the plant's bloom group. Do not disturb or move the plant once it is in the ground.
