Editor's Note

Some resources list all parts of all Clematis species poisonous if ingested. The toxic principal is Anemonin, and symptoms after ingestion include intense burning sensation in the mouth and mouth ulcers.

Dermatitis and skin irritation has also been recorded, as have allergies and hay fever type symptoms from pollen inhalation.

We tend to err on the side of caution in PlantFiles, and the danger notation in the details above is to caution gardeners, parents and pet owners to look further for more information.

I've had great success with this cultiver and I don't have any clematic experience.

It likes full sun and the spring weather. I don't know how it'll re-act to our hot summers.

It grows in bounds and responds very well to bloom fertilizer. The thick foliage adds a nice contrast to the snow white flowers.

In the early spring, I prune off the dead wood, above the last nodes.
