Clematis montana Snowflake

Clematis montana Snowflake Details

Clematis montana Snowflake is a deciduous climber featuring masses of showy, single, white flowers from spring through summer. The flowers are complemented with lush foliage which emerges bronze coloured in spring, ages to mid-green, then develops yellow tones in autumn before falling. Left untrimmed it will easily grow to 10 m tall but is easily contained with trimming and can be cut back severely each winter without doing the plant any harm. This clematis prefers to grow in a full sun or partial shade position that is semi-sheltered and well-drained. It tolerates frost, dry periods, cool climates, and a wide range of soil types, barring extreme wet or dry. Clematis montana Snowflake is an attractive and popular climber that is commonly used for growing on pergolas, fences, or archways, where it makes for a stunning addition.
