[1] The plant is a woody perennial.
Clematis is a genus of about 380 species [2] [3] within the buttercup family, Ranunculaceae. [4] Their garden hybrids and cultivars have been popular among gardeners, [5] beginning with Clematis 'Jackmanii', a garden staple since 1862; more cultivars are being produced constantly.
The following species in the flowering plant genus Clematis are accepted by Plants of the World Online. [1] Although the genus is currently most diverse in warm temperate regions and mountainous habitats, molecular evidence suggests that this is of recent origin, and earlier diversification occurred in more tropical climes.
Prefers full sun, but will flower in partial shade. These woody-stemmed plants can be pruned in fall or early spring to within a couple of feet of the ground, and will vine up fence, trellis, arbors (or other plants) to heights of 10 to 30 feet. Clematis ternifolia can also be allowed to sprawl along the ground as a dense ground cover. Blooms ...

Clematis aristata is a popular hardy garden plant. It prefers a semi-shaded or shaded position and cool deep soils and will withstand heavy pruning. [5] It is a vigorous climber and may become a problem by smothering other plants. Propagation can be carried out from fresh seed and from cuttings of semi-hardened stems. [5]
Due to its disseminatory reproductive system, vitality, and climbing behavior, Clematis vitalba is an invasive plant in many places. [4] [5] The species is capable of rapid growth, climbing several times faster than English ivy, and each plant may produce in excess of 100,000 seeds. The plant may also spread through stem and root fragmentation. [6]
