Nursery contributed plant descriptions

This deliciously vanilla-scented cultivar boasts masses of tenderly pink, 2-_ in. blooms, each with a satiny sheen, rounded tepals and a spiky yellow center. Young deciduous stems are tinged burgundy, and new purple-tinted trifoliate leaves age to a handsome green bronze as the flowers melt away.

A great plant! Ture clear light pink blooms and lots of them make for a strong statement in the garden setting. New foliage has a touch of red to add even more interest. Mature height of 15-20'.

Clematis Elizabeth has vanilla-scented pale pink flowers in abundance in spring with some repeats in late summer. Rich dark foliage compliments the flowers and looks great all summer. Small Flowered Clematis. This is a Group 1 (A) Clematis, which means it flowers in spring on buds from last year's growth. They actually don't need to be pruned but if you wish to trim or direct them the best time to prune is just after flowering. Trimming encourages branching and vigorous new growth. If pruned late in the season or before flowering in spring the plant will not be harmed, but spring bloom will be affected. Remove dead or damaged branches any time.
