Clematis Zara ('Evipo062') (PBR) (Boulevard Series)
clematis el (group 2)
A charming compact deciduous climber adorned with mid- to dark-green foliage and boasting exquisite 10-13cm (4-5in) diameter light mauvy-blue blossoms with subtle rosy-mauve hues along the bars and a striking crown of vibrant yellow stamens. This very compact, free-flowering climber is ideal for containers or smaller gardens, offering masses of blooms throughout summer and into autumn.
How to care for Clematis Zara ('Evipo062') (PBR) (Boulevard Series):
To avoid dry conditions, and to ensure good soil contact around the rootball, we advise planting climbers at least 30cm (12in), and preferably 45-60cm (18-24in) away from the base of a wall or fence. An even larger distance should be maintained when planting climbers beside an existing tree or shrub.
Choose a spot with well-drained, fertile soil and ensure the location receives plenty of sunlight—at least 6 hours a day—for optimal flowering.
However, they prefer their roots to be cool and shaded, so plant low-growing plants or add a layer of mulch of well-rotted compost around the base, avoiding the immediate crown.
In early spring cut back the previous year's stems to a pair of strong buds about 15-20cm (6-8in) above ground level and apply a slow-release balanced fertiliser.
