    20210822_194941.jpg Fine for two years then suddenly this? Its well watered and drained. Thought someone had cut the stems but no. Its a Montana and has flowered beautifully this year so really a pity if i lose it. Its grown to about 3 metres. Anything i can do to put things right? North facing wall.
    Thanks

    Is it in a pot?
    Could be clematis wilt, if so, it could possibly re shoot from the base, but you have probably lost all the top growth.
