Plant description
Clematis ‘Early Sensation’ is an attractive, evergreen climber that produces masses of small, white, bowl-shaped flowers in early spring, each adorned with a striking greenish-cream centre. Its delicate, parsley-green foliage provides year-round interest, making it a versatile and eye-catching addition to gardens or conservatories.
This clematis thrives in mild climates, especially when planted against a sunny south-facing, sheltered wall. New shoots should be protected from snails and late frosts to ensure healthy growth. Ideal for adding an early burst of colour and greenery, ‘Early Sensation’ brings charm and texture wherever it's planted.
