Clematis Filigree (‘Evipo029’) (PBR) (Tudor Patio Series) | 3L Pot

A new, very compact clematis. Position: full sun or partial shade Soil: fertile, well-drained, neutral soil Rate of growth: average to fast-growing Flowering period: May to June and September Hardiness: fully hardy The first flush of flowers on this extremely compact clematis will often have more that a single row of petals surrounding the filigree-like eye, and as they appear in such abundance, they put on an impressive show for such diminutive plants. The second flush of flowers do tend to be singles (ie. with just one circle of petals), but their pale pink colouring looks almost luminous against the backdrop of green – particularly in the early evening. A great new addition to our range, it’s perfect for the patio – or the front of the border. Garden care: In early spring cut back the previous year’s stems to a pair of strong buds about 15-20cm (6-8in) above ground-level and apply a slow-release balanced fertiliser and a mulch of well-rotted garden compost around the plant, avoiding the immediate crown.
