Does New Growth Of A Clematis Jackmanii Have Fine Hairs On The Stem?

Question

Hi! Does new growth of a Clematis Jackmanii have fine hairs on the stem? I ask this because my plant seemingly died last year. I now have a new stem growing out of the ground, which I hope is the Clematis. It is currently around 6″ tall, with a flexible stem dotted with long, narrow leaves. Thank you for any information.

Answer 1

Clematis leaves appear in leaflets of three. There are no hairs on Jackmanii so you may have another type of vine coming up.
