‘Glorious Red’ is a gorgeous Clematis, that is ready to bloom from June until October. It generates bundles of velvety red, semi-double flowers, that are also accompanied by some single blooms. They cloak a scrambling growing habit of fresh green foliage and decorate the unsightliest areas of the garden. Ideal for planting in a pretty patio pot, be sure to train this hardy shrub along trellis, walls and fences for a striking summer display. Happy to progress in semi shade, watch it thrive to a height of 2.5m, along with a spread of 1.5m. It’s whopping 10cm width flowers are not one to miss! Clematis viticella ‘Glorious Red’ boasts deep red, velvety flowers with contrasting yellow stamens making an eye-catching combination. Pot up clematis plants and grow them on until large enough to plant in their final positions. When planting clematis, choose a position in sun or semi-shade and plant the climber deeply in moist, fertile, well drained soil. Position the top of the rootball at a depth of 7.5cm (3″) below soil level, to encourage new shoots to form from the base of the plant. Clematis dislike soils that are particularly wet or dry. Such soils can be improved by the addition of plenty of well rotted manure or garden compost. When growing clematis in patio containers use a soil based compost such as John Innes No.3. Train clematis plants onto a suitable support such as trellis, wires or a freestanding climbing frame.
