What Kind Of Clematis Is This And What Pruning Group Is It In?

Question

I’ve attached photos of a clematis plant I bought three years ago. This is the first year I’ve gotten blooms from it. However, I don’t have the tag for it, and I have forgotten what kind of clematis it is. Also, as you can see, the vine had to grow quite high in order to produce flowers; there are none on the trellis I have for it in my garden. Might this help you in identifying the type of clematis it is? Also, can you tell me which pruning group this clematis belongs to? Thank you for your help.

Answer 1

It looks like 'Josehphine' which flowers in early summer on old wood, then again on new growth. It is in pruning group two.
