The Bourbon Clematis is a small, compact hybrid that has flowers with large, vibrant red sepals, that develop on both new and old growth. 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.
