Clematis montana Fragrant Spring
A scented, large, montana clematis, Clematis montana Fragrant Spring is a very vigorous, hardy, deciduous climber; it will need support, such as a sturdy shed or wall. The typical clematis leaves are tripartite, and bronze-tinted. The pretty, deliciously scented flowers are single with four rounded petals , and pink with yellow-green stamens; they appear in May and early June, and are good for pollinators. Plant quite deeply (2-3”/5-8cm) to encourage shoots from the base, and cover the base with other plants or a layer of gravel or stones to keep the roots cool. Clematis Fragrant Spring needs minimal pruning, but can be sheared down if it gets out of hand.
