When they talk about the roots liking to be cool, there are ways to do this. Usually people will plant them around stone, brick or a concrete sidewalk. Creeping Phlox likes cooler roots too. If you'll mulch the roots before the frost and freezes hit, they'll usually make it through the winter well. Those first couple of years are the hardest.

We have chain link fence in our backyard. Used to have them
on the N. side of the yard..a few other flowers there, but
they just didn't do well. Moved them to the S. side of the
yard where we have a row of peonies. We planted them between those established plants. They shade the roots and
the clematis love their new location.
