They're very vigorous, about 12 feet tall, maybe because that's how high they have to grow to get full sun on their tops. Covered with flowers right now (early June, Zone 5). They have never had any clematis wilt, while other clematis in our garden collapse every year (and then grow back and have some blooms the next May, but that's another story). They get deep watering several times a summer, because we have dry spells here. |

Pruning for type 3 every year is necessary for best blooms & health. Oddly mine likes to shift it's blooms to the setting sun & I get the most blooms in indirect sunlight, (more blooms on the side of the trellis which doesn't receive full sunlight). A stunning performer regardless, with an incredible number of blooms. |

The 2.75" flowers are rich wine-red with yellow stamens. Very floriferous yet relatively compact growth compared to most viticellas which can be rather lanky at times. |
