A spectacular, showy clematis which looks like a passion flower, but is hardier and easier to grow. I love this for picking too, it's stem ends seared and then its flowers floated in a large shallow bowl.

| Care Tips | Pruning group 3 - flowers on the current season's growth so cut back hard in early spring to a healthy pair of buds 30cm (12in) above the ground and apply a mulch of compost or well-rotted manure. Tie in new shoots to a trellis or other suitable support. Will benefit from a regular liquid feed throughout the growing season. Read Sarah's article for more information on how to prune clematis. |

Reviewed 31st July 2019 by Marion Yes the plants were sent with one broken down to the roots and the other one was droopy when it arrived. I was very disappointed with them as they were a gift from my sister. I had to let he know what they were like. |
