Sweet Autumn Clematis (Clematis paniculata) brings a burst of fragrant, creamy-white bloom to late summer. You can train this vigorous twining vine up a trellis, arbor, fence, or other sturdy support, where it quickly climbs and fills space with glossy green foliage and masses of small, starry flowers.

Plant it in average, well-drained soil and keep moisture even during establishment. It performs in full sun to part shade, and it can also bloom well in considerable shade, making it useful where many flowering vines struggle. Give the roots a cool, mulched zone and provide room to roam, since mature vines commonly reach 20-30 ft (240-360 in) in length.

Because it flowers on new growth, prune hard in late winter or very early spring to control size and encourage fresh stems for bloom. After flowering, attractive feathery seed heads may form. This plant can self-seed and can be aggressive in many regions, so monitor growth and remove unwanted seedlings to keep it where you want it.
