This enchanting deciduous climber, gracing the garden with its early to late springtime display, features solitary, creamy-centred, deep blue blossoms spanning up to 7cm (2in) wide. Adorned with white stamens, these nodding flowers, opening gracefully from slender buds, transition from bell to flat or gently reflexed, unveiling a delicate inner skirt in white. As the season progresses, the divided lime green leaves beautifully complement the whimsical, fluffy seed-heads that remain, enhancing the plant's allure. A true garden gem, ‘Pamela Jackman’ is a small-flowered clematis that exudes elegance, whether cascading over pergolas, walls, or fences or intermingling with later flowering shrubs such as Rhododendron and Philadelphus.


  • Garden care:
    Clematis need their roots to be kept cool and moist, so plant the base of these clematis in light shade or provide shading with other plants or a dressing of pebbles. No routine pruning is necessary. If the spread of the plant needs to be restricted prune immediately after flowering, cutting back overlong shoots to healthy buds. Apply a slow-release balanced fertiliser and a mulch of well-rotted garden compost around the base of the plant in early spring.
