Clematis Vyvyan Pennell

Clematis Vyvyan Pennell Details

“Vyvyan Pennell” is a deciduous climber featuring exquisite flowers. It produces masses of large and showy, double, lilac-blue flowers from late spring through until summer. Single flowers are often borne off new growth later in the season. The flowers are complemented with lush, mid-green foliage. This climber will easily reach 3 m but can be trimmed as necessary which often involves cutting right back during winter. Best performance with this plant is achieved when it is grown in full sun on a well-drained, sheltered site. It is tolerant of frost, cool climates, and can be grown in coastal environments. “Vyvyan Pennell” is often grown on fences or over arches and is also great for covering a large area when used as a groundcover.
