 Allied to a tremendous surge of interest in
Clematis during recent years, there has developed a far greater
knowledge and appreciation
of the range and diversity offered by this genius and glories
that it can bestow upon any garden. It is not surprising,
therefore, that a number of growers are realizing the potential
of combining Clematis, not only with other Clematis but with,
through and in proximity to existing shrubs and trees.
The
following text does assume some acquaintance with Clematis,
if however, from the photographs within these pages your interest
is stimulated for the first time, a number of books have been
published recently from which you can glean a basis knowledge. The
main requirement for growing Clematis as companion plants is
to regard your garden as a canvass and if not talented with
brush and paint but envious of that gift allow your spade and
trowel
to be substitute tools.
If you are considering companion planting,your
garden setting is probably at a reasonable stage of development
and the
initial hard work accomplished, therefore the exercise should be one
of anticipation and enjoyment. So indulge and be adventurous.
Reviews
“
This a most valuable and inspiring book and whenever I consider
planting a Clematis I’ll be checking to see what Barry
Fretwell has to say.”
Graham Rice ‘The Garden' Journal of the
Royal Horticultural Society
“
A gardening book which makes one want to leap out of one’s
chair and hasten into the garden to see how some of the author’s
wealth of suggestions might have personal relevance.”

Pearson ‘The Rose’ Journal
of the Royal National Rose Society
