Nursery contributed plant descriptions

It is a sensational vine with three dramatic bloom stages. Flowers open as a ring of large mauve-pink sepals with deep plum stripes down the centers. In stage two, smaller center sepals open to form a light pink anemone still accented by darker long sepals. And finally, the large sepals drop as the centers opens into a fully double pink flower. A must-have for anyone looking to witness an opulent garden show! Clematis Josephine is suitable for a wall, trellis, or a container.
Josephine' has big, bold, luscious, fully double flowers with lilac pink petals centred with a magenta midrib. Grow it in shade, however, and you'll get double green flowers! A 1998 Chelsea Flower Show Award winner. The Evison Hybrid clematis are a new collection of superior clematis cultivars with long bloom periods, excellent disease resistance, and bold colours. Use them on trellises and pergolas, grow them into shrubs, or use them as groundcovers.
