In one of my gardens, it produces over 50 shoots a season at the base, which is fine if you are growing it on a fence or trellis. If growing it over a smaller statured plant, I’d recommend thinning the number of shoots in the spring when they emerge. If you haven’t grown it, give it a try!

The blooms are shiny and waxy and of very heavy substance, and each one seemingly lasting for weeks. My most favorite clematis — and it should be everyone else’s!
