This group is pruning group A (xA) pruning is done after flowering if any.
When growing montanas on fences and other places where you don't want an crow's nest My recommendation for pruning is ; When the Clematis have finished its main flowering they are pruned back to 1 or 2 pair of buds on the side shoot (not the main framework) much in the same way grape wines is pruned, this will give you a strong framework and an nice plant. When they are pruned give a good feed, compost, manure or fertilizer. Little corrective snipping will be needed on the strongest growing once, and last tie the wines to the support, so they not blow down.
