Cultural Advice
These herbaceous cultivars are clump-forming scramblers, or semi-climbers.
In general, they have non-clinging stems and can be allowed to scramble in herbaceous borders, alternatively they can be used to clamber through open shrubs, small trees, rambler and shrub roses, or obelisks.
They are all hardy, very free flowering, trouble-free clematis, suitable to use as cut flowers and come highly recommended.

Customer reviews
1st time buyer
Not really understanding what I was buying I took a chance on previous buyers recommended plants. Up till now I’m so happy what I have purchased.
My plants are at this time still in the greenhouse & hardened of outside if the cold weather takes a small rise in temperature. They are all going “crazy” to get planted outside but I’m not going chance putting them outside. The first one is going in a container with a good compost mixed with John Innes No. 3
Let’s hope that the weather stays a tad milder, we are so looking forward to a lovely backdrop to our garden this coming summer.
Thank you Thorncroftclematis&climbers for a gorgeous set of 5 plants
I shall remain, yours in the garden

Easy and Very long flowering!
I've had this clematis for years growing against the shed, not realising it was in the herbaceous group. Some years I missed supporting it in time and let it mass on the ground. Now I know why it did so well like this too. Always reliable. Always a profusion of shoots and flowers despite neglect. Looked better, I thought, as a low lying mass, which is how I shall now grow it.
