Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Rarely without flower once it gets started in midsummer, it will continue right into fall in warm weather. The flowers curl back on themselves slightly for a pillowy, rounded effect. Morel, France, 1885. AGM

By: Brushwood Nursery

Gracing gardens with its classic sky blue presence for over 100 years, freely flowering 'Perle d'Azur' presents 4 in. wide, seminodding blooms centered by light green stamens and a tinge of pinkish mauve. The nearly translucent tepals have deeply grooved midribs and recurving edges, which makes each exquisite flower appear rounded. This vigorous, deciduous Clematis puts on a lofty show as it scrambles through the golden foliage of Physocarpus 'Dart's Gold'.
