Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Clematis 'Carnaby' is a lovely bicolour with white flowers with magenta and deep pink bars around chocolate red stamens. The flowers are 5-7 inches wide. They will bloom in May, June, and September on stems 6-9 feet high. Pruning group B1.
Carnaby?is an excellent compact and floriferous selection. It is usually much shorter than the maximum potential height and is useful in containers. Partial shade is best in hot, sunny climates. Consider a north or east facing wall for best color. Blooms are white or pink with a darker pink bar.
(USDA Zones 3-9) Raspberry pink flowers with an even deeper pink bar and stamens appear at mid season to grace this compact vining plant. It flowers freely in full sun with its roots shaded. [Group A, June and July, 6']
