This clematis (Evipo077) looks lovely grown through other wall-trained plants and perfectly complements grey-leaved or variegated foliage. Large flowered clematis were introduced from the Orient in the 19th century, but Old Man’s Beard (Clematis vitalba) commonly seen in British hedgerows, is an indigenous relation.
Flowers: From late spring to early autumn
- Moist, well drained

- As Clematis like cool roots, try to position so that the roots will be shaded from the sun by another plant.
- Bear in mind the space they will need to climb and provide a suitable structure - trellis, wall, fence or other plant - to scramble through.
- Minor pruning to tidy in early spring and after flowering. Group Raymond Evison for pruning
