Intense blue purple blooms on this award winning heavy bloomer cover the plant mid summer into fall! Excellent foliage (lower leaves stay on unlike many clematis) on 15' vines…also performs well in a container or even a window box. Sun to part shade; rich, moist soil…a truly exceptional Clematis! Prune hard in spring…

It's a heavy blooming hybrid with rich, velvety purple flowers over 3 inches across from midsummer into autumn! Works well in a container, windowbox or climbing up a light-colored wall. Very nice plant and easy to grow; one of our best picks for a first clematis. Try growing near or into a plant with pale green or chartreuse foliage. An Award of Garden Merit winner!

An outstanding cultivar introduced by a Polish priest, this sumptuously colored Clematis has long, slender buds and a satiny, wavy-edged bloom of saturated purple. Each tepal is marked with a subtle deep fuchsia central stripe and accented by wine-colored anthers and chartreuse styles. Dense, deciduous foliage holds its vibrant good looks all the way to the ground. Lovely from below, let it scramble up and over an archway.

Loads of medium-small deep purplish-red 4 and 5 petalled flowers are borne in profusion on this 'Jackmanii'-like clematis. Mid-late season flowering. Item # 3107. Clematis are often long-lived perennial vines that can live for 50 years+. These small-medium sized vines like conditions where their head is in the sun and their 'feet' are in the shade. A deep mulch, groundcover, or even a rock can provide the cool root zone that these easy perennials prefer.
