Can anyone help me with this problem?

I have a new clematis.noticed today it has black spots on the leafs at the base.Also spiraling up the stalk.?
Most likely ,it is aphids.They are very small bugs,that suck the sap out of plants.If not treated they will kill your plant.Aphids come in many colors,such as black,green,brown and white.Most stores that sell garden supplies,has poisons to kill them.Aphids leave a sweet sticky substance on the underside of leaves,that also attracts ants.
Reply:Clematis is susceptible to Black Spot, the same fungus that infects roses. Try a multipurpose anti-fungal solution available from your garden store.
