Clematis viticella 'Purpurea Plena Elegans'
Clematis viticella 'Purpurea Plena Elegans' is a vigorous, free-flowering climber renowned for its masses of fully double blooms in rich shades of dusky purple, deep pink, and plum. Flowering from mid-summer well into autumn, it provides an exceptionally long season of colour and interest.
This classic viticella variety is ideal for training over arches, pergolas, fences, and obelisks, where its abundant flowers can be enjoyed at eye level. Its strong growth and excellent disease resistance make it one of the easiest clematis varieties to grow.
A deserved recipient of the RHS Award of Garden Merit, this reliable Group 3 clematis benefits from hard pruning in late winter or early spring, encouraging vigorous new growth and prolific flowering each year.
