Product Description
Clematis Montana Marjorie is the world's first double flowering Clematis Montana, known as the Mile a Minute Clematis. It boasts spectacular creamy pink flowers with salmon centres and bronze tinted foliage. They are delicate and romantic flowers that will add elegance to any garden displays. Like other Montana varieties, it will cover any fence, wall or unsightly object at an amazing rate but with amazing double flowers. A great colourful alternative to the usual hedging plants, magnificent flowers smother the Clematis in late spring and a glossy green foliage lasts until November. Clematis like to be planted where they can get plenty of sunlight but prefer to have their roots kept cool and shaded so at the base cover with a layer of pebbles or low growing plants. Regular pruning will encourage strong growth and allow you to manage your clematis to the height and spread that best suits your garden. 30-40cm plants supplied in a 9cm pot.

Growing at a glance…
Clematis are vigorous climbing plants that reach various heights and spreads. Its best to prune back to keep control over the growth annually and initially they should be tied in to help direct the new growth. Apply a liquid fertiliser each yearduring the growing season, and water regularly during hot periods.Clematis can be planted October-May in areas with good drainage and plenty of sun is preferable. Soak in a bucket of water prior to planting and plant deep enough to allow plenty of room for root development. The roots of clematis like to be keptcool so it is a good idea to plant amongst low growing shrubs or bedding plants. If planting in containers, ensure the pot is large enough to allow the roots to expand/develop, as limitation of roots will certainly impede future success.
