Introduction: This article shares experience related to the cold tolerance of French Perfume Clematis, and will introduce it to everyone in the following content.
How cold can French Perfume Clematis withstand?
French Perfume Clematis has very strong cold tolerance. Generally, mature plants over 2 years old can endure temperatures below -20 degrees Celsius. The suitable growth temperature is between 18 to 28 degrees Celsius. The night temperature is relatively low, which can be maintained between 10-20 degrees Celsius. The overwintering temperature is around 5 degrees Celsius. When the temperature is low in winter, it needs to be moved to a warm indoor environment, providing a temperature of 15 degrees to avoid frostbite.
French Perfume Clematis, also known as Perfume Jasmine, has a certain degree of cold tolerance and is not afraid of freezing. As long as sufficient sunlight, suitable temperature, and proper water are provided during the maintenance period, it will grow vigorously.
Cold Tolerance Temperature of French Perfume Clematis

3. Minimum Cold Tolerance Temperature
French Perfume Clematis has very strong cold tolerance. Generally, mature plants over 2 years old can endure temperatures below -20 degrees Celsius. Therefore, they usually do not get frostbitten in winter. Since it can tolerate severe cold, it can survive the winter in most regions of our country.
Overwintering Care for French Perfume Clematis
1. Move indoors: In a low-temperature environment in winter, French Perfume Clematis may experience dropping flower buds and yellowing leaves. Therefore, when the temperature is low in winter, it is necessary to move French Perfume Clematis to a warm indoor environment, providing a temperature of over 15 degrees to prevent frost damage to the plant.
2. Provide sunlight: French Perfume Clematis is a sun-loving plant. When maintaining it indoors, it should be placed in a well-ventilated and sunlit environment. Providing the plant with full-day sunlight allows it to perform photosynthesis and promotes more vigorous growth.
3. Control watering and fertilizing: The growth rate of French Perfume Clematis slows down in winter, and watering should be controlled. Generally, water should be applied when the soil is dry, keeping the soil slightly moist. Note that when the temperature is below 10 degrees Celsius, do not fertilize French Perfume Clematis, as the plant may suffer from fertilizer damage.
The above introduction to the cold tolerance of French Perfume Clematis is hoped to bring some knowledge of flowers to flower enthusiasts.
