Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Ascotiensis has large, 6 inch well formed flowers bloom in mid to late summer on this classic hybrid. Try growing it with a white or yellow rose! Late, Large Flowered Type. This is a Group 3 (C) Clematis, which means it flowers later in summer and into fall in colder climates. In warmer climates it may begin blooming much sooner. Group 3 Clematis form flowers on new growth each year, so for the best display and neatest look they should be pruned back hard each spring to about two feet off the ground or even less if desired. However, if you are training one of these into a tree or onto an overhead arbor they should be left much longer. Look for fat, healthy buds on sturdy canes and make your cut just above them. Remove dead or damaged branches any time.
