Clematis 'Jackmanii'

Clematis 'jacmanii', also called bos rank in Dutch, is a large-flowered, very popular, deciduous climbing plant with a strong upright growth. The leaves are composed of lanceolate medium green leaflets. This forest vine flowers from July to September with large deep purple flowers with a usually slightly lighter center stripe and creamy white stamens. Clematis 'Jackmanii' likes a position sheltered from wind in partial shade or full sun and requires a neutral to calcareous, well-drained soil. This late-flowering clematis is good to very hardy, attracts butterflies and bees and is suitable for wall planting, trellis or pergola vegetation.
