Take the opportunity to check their ties. During the summer, plants put on a good deal of girth and ties that were loose last year may now be strangling. I find it best to use purpose made ties that are less likely to cut into the bark. And big, heavy climbers should be attached to proper wall plugs.

Cutting the stems cleanly while holding them under water is an essential start. Then you must use a clean vase. I find that proprietary powders added to the water vary in their effectiveness and that dissolving an aspirin is as good as some of them. But my experience is that the greatest benefit of all comes from changing the water frequently. It smells better too.

And there's certainly no substitute for real mint. Lift a small part of a clump therefore, cut down any top growth and pot it up in a small pot of good compost. If you have a heated greenhouse, keep it there; if not, find a warm spot in the house. Water it regularly and you will have fresh mint to see you through the cold months.

The real attraction is the mass of silvery seed heads which will remain pretty through the frost and snow. They will need hard pruning in the spring. Clematis tangutica is one of several yellow autumn flowering varieties. They are all best when allowed to scramble up an old tree and prefer a slightly alkaline soil.
