A compact, late-flowering clematis, which is ideal for larger pots or smaller gardens. The flowers start to appear in midsummer and initially they are a very subtle mix of lavender-blue, pink and cream, but as they age, they fade to a soft silvery blue, which is accented by the boss of burgundy-flushed stamens. Each one can grow up to 10cm across, so they really look exquisite when clambering through the trellis or over an obelisk.

Cut back the stems to the base of the plant each winter and apply a mulch of well-rotted garden compost around the plant, avoiding the immediate crown.

To avoid dry conditions, and to ensure good soil contact around the rootball, we advise planting climbers at least 30cm (12in), and preferably 45-60cm (18-24in) away from the base of a wall or fence. An even larger distance should be maintained when planting climbers beside an existing tree or shrub.
