Description

Take a hefty dose of tow-toned true blue flowers, a very long bloom time, stir in a generous helping of disease resistance, and you've got the recipe for the perfect clematis. This non-vining C. integrifolia selection flowers prolifically and reliably every summer, creating mounds of blue blooms that last for weeks. Another innovative introduction from clematis breeder extraordinaire Szczepan Marczynski.
