Light purple 6” (15cm) diameter flowers, occasionally with green tips to the sepals, maturing to a purple blue with red purple anthers.
Marvellous with cream, yellow or pink-flowered roses or grey foliage plants.
This clematis will grow to 6-8ft. (180-250cm), starting to flower at about 2ft (60cm) to 3ft (90cm). It is ideal to grow and flower on walls, pergolas, archways or on tripods, ideally with associated plants such as summer-flowering roses or through wall-trained evergreen or deciduous shrubs and climbers, through free-standing shrubs or for giving added colour on metal, hazel or willow tripods or wigwams, in mixed borders giving added height and interest.
Its multi-flowering habit is unique for a summer flowering, large-flowered clematis, as its blooms are produced in great abundance. Many blooms change colour as they mature, giving an appearance of a multi-coloured flowering clematis, an added interest.
