Bought a whole set of different clematis for a new area for climbers and they've all taken off very well, this one included. Flowered well in the first year.

- Soil: fertile, well-drained soil, neutral soil
- Rate of growth: average
- Flowering period: May to June and occasionally again in August and September
- Hardiness: fully hardy
A dazzling variety with large, lavender flowers up to 15cm across, with pronounced ruff of stamens and mid-green leaves. A compact and free-flowering climber that is perfect for the small garden as it only grows to 1.8m tall and wide. It can also be grown in a large container up an obelisk or against a sunny wall. - Garden care: Remove dead and damaged stems before growth begins in early spring, cutting all remaining stems back to where strong buds are visible. Apply a slow-release balanced fertiliser and a mulch of of well-rotted garden compost around the base of the plant in early spring.

Grew quickly and flowered. This was its first year, small flowers at first but then larger heads. Few flowers came later in the year in second flush. Attractive flower.

This is a very compact climber, but provided it is getting lots of food and water (and does not have too much competition from surrounding plants), it should get slightly taller than 1m.
