Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Silmakivi' has very plentiful, large, six inch wide, light blue flowers with lighter blue, almost white, centres and yellow stamens from July to September. Originating in Estonia the Kivistik clematis have a compact growth habit, copious blooms on the current season's growth, an unusually long bloom period, rich colours, great disease resistance, and hardiness to zone 3. Their compact size and long bloom time make them excellent in containers or in the garden.
