Clematis orientalis 'Bill MacKenzie'
Clematis orientalis 'Bill MacKenzie' is a vigorous, late-flowering clematis renowned for its masses of nodding, bright yellow lantern-like flowers. Blooming from midsummer through to early autumn, the cheerful blooms are followed by silky, silver seedheads that provide additional interest well into winter. Its finely divided green foliage creates a light, airy backdrop, making it a standout feature when grown through trees, over fences, or across pergolas.
This hardy climber is highly adaptable and easy to grow, thriving in sun or partial shade in most well-drained soils. Its long flowering season, decorative seedheads, and fast growth make it a reliable and dramatic choice for covering large areas or adding vertical interest to the garden. Holder of the RHS Award of Garden Merit, it combines ornamental beauty with proven garden performance.
