A delightful perennial herbaceous clematis boasting lance-shaped, purple-tinged leathery leaves, and blooms with nodding, fragrant, sugar-pink, bell-shaped flowers, 4cm (1in) wide, delicately shaded darker on the outside. From early to late summer, these charming blossoms adorn the non-clinging, bushy form, capturing attention in borders basking in full sun or partial shade. Clematis integrifolia ‘Rosea’ has a prolonged season of interest, gracing the garden with its silky seed-heads, ensuring a lasting fascination through to the first frosts.
Clematis are happiest when their roots are kept cool and moist, so try to plant them where the base of the plants will be lightly shaded by other, lower-growing species. 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. Use twiggy prunings, ring stakes or bamboo canes to provide support.
