Beginners Clematis
Our beginners clematis group have been selected because of their easy to grow nature and ability to perform pretty much regardless of the way they are treated. The shortlist we have provided here should all do well if given careful planting, even if they get neglected a little afterwards!
There is a good spread of flowering times among the list so you can have interest throughout the calendar year and should make life easier for the gardener.

These are all plants that have lost their labels but are super plants and being plant lovers we simply can't bring ourselves to throw them away!
They are all spring flowering from the Atragene Group but please do not ask for a specific cultivar or colour, they have lost their labels, hence the name 'Lucky-Dip'!
Some of these have recently been cleaned so there may be small amounts of foliage that is slightly damaged, this will not cause the plant any harm. -
