Q.Pruning clematis advice
When would be the best time to prune an anemone clematis, and how far back should it be pruned? It grew profusely on a trellis and porch this year, and needs to be seriously trimmed. Thank you!

Anemone clematis bloom in late spring, so to avoid harming next year's growth these should be pruned directly after flowering. This article will give you more information on this subject: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/vines/clematis/pruning-clematis-vines.htm
