Shrub Clematis

This fabulous Clematis has a self supporting, bush forming habit that is perfect for bulking up perennial borders with vigorous clumps of dense, large green leaves. The star-shaped, indigo blooms have slender, reflexed petals and a lovely sweet fragrance. Blooms summer through early fall. Fluffy seed heads follow blooms, hence its other common name, Old Man’s Beard. Best grown among tall perennials making a superb gap filler for cottage garden planting schemes. Excellent for the patio, cottage gardens, scented gardens and cut flower gardens. USPP#13977: unlicensed propagation prohibited.
