Clematis wilsonii has satin white star-shaped flowers, with incredible scent.

Clematis montana varieties are the classic clematis to train up into trees to tumble down from above your head. They are quick-growing and vigorous, covered in flowers for late spring and early summer.

I have these cascading down from arches in the cutting garden and on a May evening, they will fill the entire garden with perfume.

Another fantastic plant from Sarah Raven which arrived in perfect condition. My clematis was planted recently and is already growing beautifully.

Reviewed 22nd June 2015 by Mick Garton

After three years this wonderful clematis has established itself on an old 4-metre high stone wall, and cascades down including through a gap to brighten up both sides and fill the air with a delicious almond/spicy/sweet, irresistible fragrance. Planted at the same time as rambling rose Madame Alfred Carriere, the two have been flowering together over this wonderful old wall from mid/late May through to the end of June and will last another few weeks yet (in Edinburgh). A beautiful planting association, making a show-stopping impact, admired by passers by! Both plants fully live up to the glowing descriptions on the Sarah Raven site, from where it was purchased.
