How To Treat Clematis Wilt And How To Prevent It When Planting

Question From: Green Bay, Wisconsin, United States
Q: How to treat clematis wilt and is Ferbam the answer

Go back to Yardener.com and enter problems with Clematis in the search box. After cleaning the area I would treat the plant with Immunox. It's much cheaper than Furbam. Better yet, use a biological fungicide called Actinovate, It's organic and OMRI listed. Use it as a soil drench and a spray. One of the secrets to preventing wilt is to plant the Clematis deep. Bury it up to the first set of leaves back filling the hole with 50 percent native soil and 50 percent of organic matter, such as a mix of good quality compost and composted pine bark, such as Fafard's Planting Mix. Drench the soil with Actinovate when it reaches 50 degrees in spring and spray the plant every couple of weeks as a preventative. Best And Happy Yardening, Nancy
