Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Vigorous, evergreen, vine with creamy, bell-shaped, sweetly scented flowers in profusion November through March. Not the showiest of clematis, but a welcome winter performer with dark green leaves that bronze a bit in the cold. Silky seedheads add interest, persisting into summer. Plant out of winter winds in bright light where roots are cool and foliage is in the sun. Prefers regular summer water and good drainage. Very nice in containers. Frost hardy to USDA zone 8.
