Clematis

Clematis is a showy, large-flowered vine for use on a wall, trellis or post. Most can climb up to 8-12' high. They need little pruning, so are fairly low maintenance.

We carry several varieties of clematis: * Jackmannii: deep purple flowers from summer to early fall * Nelly Moser: light mauve flowers in early summer and again in fall * Ramona: large, clear blue (purple) dark-centered flowers throughout the summer * Henryi: large, white flowers, summer to early fall

We have lots of neat metal trellises that clematis would look so pretty climbing up!
