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.

A beautiful clematis
Sent this as a gift to my sister in the UK. I have one in my own garden and it is quite exquisite with a riot of strong deep blue alpine flowers which look wonderful up a trellis or tree

Just what I needed
I was looking for a herbaceous scrambler to pair with a viburnum which would kick in once the viburnum had finished flowering. This could well be it. A fine healthy plant was sent but we'll have to wait until next season to see if it fits the bill

Beautiful plant
A beautiful plant but a martyr to powdery mildew
