Limited stock, act fast Clematis Kingfisher™ evipo037Old Man’s Beard

‘Kingfisher’ is a wonderful new Clematis that is ready to bloom from May until October. It produces masses of bright purple flowers, that each feature a striking lime green centre. They cloak a vigorous, yet compact growing habit of fresh green foliage and produce a second flush later in the summer. Perfect for planting in patio pots and cottage gardens, keep positioned in partial shade and enjoy watching it grow to a height of 180cm, along with a spread of 100cm. 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.
