It stands erect when young, maturing to a bush habit. Like most perennials, Stand by Me will die back to the ground in fall.
Stand by Me Clematis is deer and rabbit resistant and thrives in full sun, but will tolerate some light shade. It desires rich, evenly moist, well-drained soil for it to thrive.

To help this plant settle in and thrive, we recommend these standard planting practices: This variety falls in Group 3. Plant with the crown 2-3 inches deep in well-draining soil. Mulch well to keep the roots cool. Pruning: These bloom on new growth. In late winter or very early spring, cut the entire plant back hard to 6-12 inches above the soil level. This ensures vigorous, new growth and a full flush of flowers every single year.
