Best deals, always Clematis ‘Guernsey Flute’™Old Man’s Beard

‘Guernsey Flute’ is a superb new Clematis, that is ready to flower from May until June and again in September. It generates an abundance of huge white blooms, that cloak a climbing growing habit of fresh green foliage. Easy to care for and happy to progress in semi shade, be sure to incorporate into patio pots, cottage and scented gardening schemes, as well as using to hide unsightly walls or fences. It will flourish to a height of 1.2m and will spread to around 90cm. Large flowers span 12-14cm across, their immaculate white petals highlighted by red anthers. With a main flowering period from May to July and repeat flowers extending into September, Clematis ‘Guernsey Flute’™ provides a long season of interest in small spaces. 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.
