About This Plant
One of the earliest large-flowered clematis to bloom, award-winning Clematis produces masses of bold, bright pink flowers, up to 6-8 in. across (15-20 cm), adorned with white central bars and yellow stamens. Flowering comes in two waves: first in late spring to early summer, then in late summer and early fall. The flowers give way to attractive seed heads. Shade tolerant, the compact habit of this large-flowered clematis makes it ideal for small gardens, and containers.

Our Tips & Recommendations
Planting Tip
Clematis love "cool feet, warm heads." Mulch the root zone well and position so the vine can climb into sunlight. Plant the crown 2–3 inches below soil level.
Pruning by Group
Know your pruning group! Group 1 blooms on old wood (light trim after flowering), Group 2 is light prune in late winter, Group 3 gets a hard prune to 12 inches in early spring.
Watering
Keep soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, especially during the first year. A 2–3 inch layer of mulch helps retain moisture and keep roots cool.
