Is it too late to cut back clementis and jasmine?
found this extra info-clematis, early flowering just require light pruning immediately after flowering and tudying up of unwanted/dead stems.


early large flowerers should be cut back to the highest pair of strong leaf-axil buds and any dead/damaged stems removed in early spring.


late flowerers need hard pruning before new growth begins in early spring. remove all the previous seasons stems down to a pair of strong leaf-axil buds 15cm-30cm above the soil.





the jasmine should be ok, but if the clematis is an early flowerer then best to leave it, although it would be ok just to tidy it up, trim back only the dead stalks!
Reply:It all depends on which Clementius it is as most should be cut back after it has flowered and the same for jasmine
Reply:You should have had instructions with both of them showing pruning times. However most Clematis should be cut back in February, so you can just about get away with it. Cut it back to about one metre. I would lightly trim the Jasmine at this stage.
Reply:No. Am not an expert but jasmine, in my experience, pretty much takes care of itself.





Clematis - there are so may variants of it - see link below, which says you don't necessarily need to prune it.





My own (un-expert) view is to cut the brown and keep the green.
Reply:No, it is not to late. You can remove any brown and or dead parts. Look for the new growth and avoid cutting it. All the dead, brown matter is last years growth.
