New Clematis : what do I do to it next.?

Hello! My new clematis is in a pot in a south facing garden and was doing well and flowering. This is it now in the photo. Has something gone wrong?!

 

Nothing gone wrong its just finished flowering.
They do that I'm afraid.

 

Thanks! Do I snip the heads off?

 

You can cut the dead heads off if you want to, but I doubt it will flower again until next year.

A lot depends on what variety it is, and others on here are much more able to give better advice than I am.
Hope one comes along soon.

 

Clematis Josephine. Thanks

 

Hi,

Some varieties are known for their attractive seed heads /tassles, but its more down to the individuals choice as to which looks better.

If you cut the seed heads off, it may give you a few more flowers before winter.

Josephine is a group2 so follow these instructions for pruning -
Clematis pruning: group two

 

Thanks

 

I've discovered that dead-heading them, if you've got the patience, does encourage another flush of flowers. A feed and a good soak helps too....

 

Will sead head tomorrow thanks!
