The listing, Clematis "Rouguchi" (10 seeds) has ended.
The 2" bell-shaped flowers are intense deep blue/purple with lighter blue recurved petals. Flowers fade to indigo-blue. This lax clinger is fragrant and very free flowering. Blooms June thru September.
Clematis can be grown in full sun or light shade, but its base and roots must be completely shaded. You may need to plant a small shrub or large perennial directly in front of its rootball to keep it cool and shaded. A thick layer of mulch will also help to keep the soil moist. This vine prefers to be grown in moist, well-drained, slightly alkaline soil. Adding lime to the soil will help to provide these conditions.
Flowers only on growth produced the previous year. Prune out weak or dead stems as soon as they are finished blooming, and remove stems that have bloomed. April/May Bloomers.
