First of its kind. Stands only 30cm (12") tall and bears abundant large, blue-mauve flowers, faintly striped in dark pink, from early to mid summer, with some flowers present until the end of summer. Perfect for containers, even hanging baskets. Superior disease resistance and tolerance to summer heat. Prune lightly in the early spring (February or March), just above the first pair of new swollen leaf buds, removing about 12 inches from each shoot. Also remove any dead or weak stems at the same time. From the Flora Collection (Miniature Clematis). Pruning Group 3.
