This is a magnificent, very original variety. It reaches a height of 2 m and has full, deep blue‑violet flowers; there can be quite a variation in flowering, and individual flowers may appear during the summer–autumn bloom. The plant is frost‑hardy and low‑maintenance, and it thrives in our climatic conditions. It climbs very well on pergolas, trellises, fences, and even on small shrubs that serve as natural supports. It prefers secluded, sunny, warm locations that are sheltered from wind. It blooms from May to July. The soil should be fertile, rich in humus, well‑draining, and moist, with a pH of 6.0–7.0.
This is a magnificent, very original variety. It reaches a height of 2 m and features full, deep blue‑violet flowers; there is sometimes quite a variation in flowering, and individual flowers may appear during the summer–autumn bloom. The plant looks beautiful both in the garden and in pots on balconies or terraces; it is frost‑hardy and low‑maintenance, making it ideal for cultivation under Polish climatic conditions.
Application: It climbs wonderfully on pergolas, fences, walls, gazebos, trellises, and natural supports such as coniferous trees, deciduous trees, shrubs, and small bushes. It also grows excellently in large pots on balconies, terraces, and in small gardens.
Blooming: From May until the end of August.
Exposure: Suitable for any orientation.
Care: Plant the clematis 5 cm deeper than it grew in the pot and at least 30 cm away from other plants or walls. Mulch the soil around the plant with bark. Provide some shade for the base using, for example, low‑growing shrubs, and before winter cover the base with bark up to a height of 10–20 cm. It grows best in fertile, humus‑rich, well‑draining soils that are rich in calcium (pH 6.0–7.0) and airy. Begin fertilizing in April and water intensively during the growing season.
Pruning: Since this variety blooms on last year’s shoots, prune at the turn of February and March by removing dead and diseased shoots, and lightly trim the healthy ones – in the first year after planting, cut about 30 cm above the strong buds; in the second year, about 70 cm; and in subsequent years, about 150 cm above the ground.
