Growing Instructions for Clematis Hybrid Flower:

Space the clematis seeds evenly on the planting mix, leaving at least 1/2 inch between the seeds. Sprinkle the seeds with a thin coating of the planting mix. Top the seeds and planting mix with 1/4 inch of sand. Gently water the pot without disturbing the sand and seeds.

Seal the pot with the planted seeds in a clear plastic bag. Label the bag with the variety of clematis seeds you used. Place the bag in the refrigerator for about three months. This tricks the seeds into thinking there was a cold period during the germination process. This process is known as stratification.

Remove the seeds from the refrigerator and place in a warm area that has bright light but not direct sunlight. Keep the soil moist while the seeds germinate. The germination process is determined by the variety of clematis you are growing. Some clematis seeds germinate in six to eight weeks, while other seeds take up to three years.

Watch for signs of the clematis seeds sprouting. Allow the seedlings to reach a height of 2 inches or more before transplanting into separate containers. Use the same potting mix as you did for the germination process. Take care not to damage the long tap root of the seedlings.
