Overview
A vigorous deciduous and frost hardy climber that produces three part, bronze coloured leaves that turn green.
The open faced flowers are sweetly scented with six to eight petals and fluffy yellow upright stamens.
Cultivars are available in a huge range of colours from white through shades of pinks and purples to reds and yellows come in shades of white to pink to red with .
They flower prolifically in spring and early summer and can be trained over sheds, arches and fences, anything that offers support to the weak climbing stems.
Clematis prefers a colder winter, producing more flowers after a cold winter.
Soil: Moist, cool, open soils providing they are reasonably fertile.
Keep roots in the shade allowing the plant to grow into the sunshine.
Maintenance: A slow release feed in spring will see it through its flowering period.
Mulch to keep soil cool in summer and keep well watered when in flower.
Clematis are divided into 3 groups based on when and on what growth the flowers are produced.
Group 1 - Early flowering on last season growth.
Group 2 early to mid season flowering on new shoots from last season growth.
Group 3 late summer to early autumn on new season growth.
Diseases: Clematis wilt.
