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.

Arrived promptly and well protected. I love the texenis varieties of clematis. I've temporarily potted it on. Flowered well and beautiful shape. Possibly not in full sun as the purple flowers faded a little.

This was my worse purchase ever. Would never have looked at it in a garden centre. It should have been in the greatly reduced section. However, on complaining to the company my money was refunded and I thank you. I doubt that SR herself would ever have considered sending out a (costly) plant in that condition.
