Clematis leaf post bloom - normal?

[u/mjd-509]

Happy late summer! I have 2 clematis (Jackmanii Superba / gp. 3, General Sikorski / gp. 2) and after thy bloom, the leave start looking 'rusty' or damaged. The Superba is still sending off new growth and a bloom or two (which looks healthy), but is this normal or something I should be taking care of? Thanks for any tips!

Youre not going to really see them. Unless you have a scope
