Clematis Flammula

code: 850

It makes a superb cloak for anything less beautiful

Family: Ranunculaceae
Common name: Sweet-scented virgin’s bower
Plant Classification: Hardy climber
Packet Content(approx.): 12

This highly desirable, vigorous, deciduous climber bears a very heavy crop of very fragrant, pure white flowers in panicles up to 12 inches long, and which open over the whole plant, and later become fluffy seed-heads, from August to October. It makes a superb cloak for anything less beautiful. Most seeds produced are fluffy and sterile but these are good.

Sowing advice:
Sow seeds at any time onto a good soil-based compost covering seeds with fine grit or compost to approximately their own depth. We recommend germinating at 15 to 20 degrees C. Germination may be very slow, perhaps 2-3 months, or sometimes much longer, and these seeds may sometimes wait for spring before emerging. Grow on individual seedlings in 3 inch pots before finally planting with climbing support in a well-drained spot or very large pot.
