Clematis x jackmanni 'The Vagabond'
Spectacular deciduous climber. Tiny and compact. Deep burgundy purple flowers with a maroon bar and contrasting cream stamens, flowering spring and autumn. Great for climbing through trees. Very pretty. They flower on new season's growth, so prune back to two strong buds late winter. Best results from good pruning, top in full sun, and with the roots planted in the shade.
