Nursery contributed plant descriptions

One of the largest flowered, small flowered clematis - confusing hey - pendant long petaled blooms with an ethereal translucent quality. It never fails to put on a fine spring display; neat and attractive leaves unfolding simultaneously with the flowers, and the seed heads are attractive well into the winter. We find these much more tasteful than their large flowered cousins.
