I just planted some clematis and under it I put that black landscaping paper and put alot of mulch on top,should I remove the paper and mulch and just rock it ,I planted them 5 or 6 wks ago,will they get the proper water and drainage with this paper and mulch ,I was told by someone that the paper wasn’t good need your opinion pls
Everything you did was fine….just make sure you haven’t piled mulch up against the stem of the vine…brush it away form the stem where it enters the soil until you see the original soil. Mulch is a good thin around clematic since the prefer sun on the leaves but cool soil below.
