I love this clematis, its awsome, as you can see in the photos! He is a vigorus climber, and the blooms are awsome, he starts to bloom in spring, and right now he is still setting buds! I am amazed at how well he has done, he is three years old, and ive had no problems with it. Leaves are nice and dark green, the flowers are pale pink, with a stripe of pink down the center of each petal. You might be able to see it in my photos! I just love this Clematis.. I fertalize it with Dr. Earth, and he loves it!

I love this plant, i have had it about three years, i bought it in a one gallon at the home depot, now it is huge and beautiful, it takes up almost my whole fence, and is now growing into my cup of gold vine!!! I love the flower, it is huge! And i fertalize mine when the growth starts in summer, with a bloom booster fertalizer.. And it blooms almost the whole summer! I am very pleased with this clematis, my friends say that when its in bloom, it looks like it should be on the front of a magazine cover.. It is very awsome, and i wouldnt trade it for anything else!!
