Clematis Help

[AmyRose]

Hi All,

Ive just bought 3 clematis plants (Montana and 2 other varieties)

Am I ok to get digging and plant them outside straight away (im very keen to get covering an ugly fence) or do i need to wait til it warms up abit?

Thanks!

If they've been kept in a hot shop, I would harden them off gradually for 7-10 days before planting out

If they've been outside, bung them straight in

Wonderful thanks TS.

They have been in a hot shop.

They are only small plants but i did notice one of them has small flower buds on it; is this normal or somthing to do with the conditions they've been kept in?
