10 Best and/or easiest for the garden grouped per flower colour
The list below is a choice of the cultivars which are the easiest for the garden. This list is a direct source of discussion as this does not mean that cultivars not in the list should not be grown. Contrary. But Clematis likes, especially the plants with thick fleshy roots, enough watering and feeing in the growing season. When this care is not given a choice from the list might be a good start.
