WaterClematis 'Corinne' prefers to be watered deeply and regularly during the growing season, especially in dry periods.

Water once a week with about 1 gallon of water, allowing the moisture to reach the roots without overwhelming the plant. During hot spells or drought, increase the frequency to twice a week. In cooler or rainy periods, reduce watering but never let the soil dry out entirely.
LightClematis 'Corinne' thrives best in a spot where it receives at least six hours of direct sunlight, but the roots and base of the plant should be shaded or kept cool. An ideal location would be facing east or west to provide ample sunlight with protection from the intense heat of the midday sun. Planting near a structure that provides partial shade to the base or using a low-growing plant to shade the roots can ensure optimal lighting conditions.
TemperatureClematis 'Corinne' is hardy and can withstand a range of temperatures but performs best in temperatures between 55°F and 75°F.

To ensure robust growth, aim to maintain the ideal range during the growing season.
PruningPrune Clematis 'Corinne' in late winter or early spring before new growth begins, removing any dead or weak stems to encourage healthy growth and flowering. This Clematis is in pruning group 2, which means it flowers on old wood, so prune lightly to shape the vine and maximize blooms. The best time to prune is after the first bloom in late spring or early summer, removing dead flowers to promote a second flush.
CleaningAs needed
SoilClematis, including 'Clematis Corinne', thrives best in well-draining, fertile soil with a neutral to slightly alkaline pH, typically around 7.0.

Life cycleClematis 'Evipo063' begins as a dormant cutting or young plant, often obtained from a nursery. It then enters a growth phase where it rapidly develops a root system and foliage, usually in the spring. This vine produces stems that require support, and it climbs using leaf petioles as tendrils. Throughout late spring to early fall, the plant blooms, showing off large, prominent flowers that can repeat bloom throughout the season. After flowering, some varieties of Clematis may produce fluffy seed heads which persist into late fall or early winter. In the dormant season, typically winter, growth slows or ceases, and the plant may require pruning to promote vigorous growth and abundant flowering in the subsequent season.
PropogationPropogation time
Spring-Early Summer
Propogation: The Clematis Corinne, which falls under the 'Evipo063' (PBR) (EL) patent, is typically propagated through layering or cuttings, with the best time to do so being in late winter or early spring just before the new growth begins. The most popular method of propagation for this Clematis is by taking semi-hardwood cuttings, which involves selecting a healthy, non-flowering stem from the current season's growth. Cut a piece around 4-6 inches (approximately 10-15 centimeters) long, ensuring it includes at least two sets of leaf nodes. The lower leaves are then removed, and the cut end dipped in rooting hormone powder to encourage root development. This cutting should be planted in a pot filled with a mix of peat and perlite, ensuring the nodes where the leaves were removed are buried. The cutting needs to be kept in a well-lit area but out of direct sunlight and consistently moist until the roots are established, which usually takes a few weeks. Once rooted, the new Clematis can be gradually acclimated to outdoor conditions before being transplanted into the garden.
