Additional Information

This is a vigorous twining vine with prolific beautiful soft pink flowers. It is best to prune after flowering, as it flowers on growth from the previous season. The root system should be kept cool by deep soil preparation and mulching around base. It is said that Clematis prefer "a warm top and a cool bottom". While this is generally true, provide some shade during the day to the top portion for best results. Climbs by twining stems and clasping leaves, so needs a trellis or wire support.
