Advice regarding Vancouver Danielle?

11 years ago

I just purchased two 3.5 gallon size pots of this variety. (Vancouver Danielle) I was so smitten with the dark, dark purple blue color. I have some questions, regarding placement and a proper climbing form for it. Below is the trellis I chose. It is also available in a 60" tall size. I chose the 84" one- don't know if I got the right one for this particular clematis.

Also, the location I was going to plant this clematis is sunny from 9-6 in the summer. Is that too much sun for this plant? I see many posters here putting photos on, and their plants are in shady locations. I tried to grow clematis once before on the arches around our fishpond, and they NEVER thrived and I took them out. The area I have chosen for these is a different location. So I am a little worried about these new Vancouver Danielles, as they were not inexpensive. They are Monrovia plants, and those always seem to garner high prices in the stores. They were prices at $59.98 each and I paid $30 each for them. Thanks to anyone who can help me. :-)
