Will my Clematis re-grow?

Its got two chances I guess

I would stick it in and see what happens

Did it flower in the spring or summer? Summer flowering clematis should be cut right back anyway. But if it has roots on it, I think this will have a good chance of surviving.

Hi Capsid
It flowers around June. Should I cut the stem down before potting it up, it's about 8 inches long?

You're right there FionaH and that's my ethos when sowing and planting veg but I don't know too much about flowers but as you say 50/50 chance!

I'd leave them alone. Are the stems brown (last year's growth) or green (this year's growth)?

They're brown, previous years or even the year before that. It's older wood anyway.
