Clematis montana 'Rubens' is a vigorous, fully hardy, deciduous climber ideal for covering walls and fences with purple-tinged green foliage that is covered with sweetly-scented soft, pastel-pink blooms in May and June. The flowers are similar to that of Clematis 'Mayleen' but slightly smaller (around 5cm) and with four open, rounded petals. However, this variety of Clematis is prolific when it flowers producing a swath of beautiful blooms taht almost cover the foliage.
Clematis 'Rubens' will grow in full sun or partial shade and prefers moist, neutral, well-drained soil. Being hardier than other varieties, Clematis montana 'Rubens' will grow well in either sheltered or exposed locations.
Prune after flowering in spring if necessary to encourage new growth and flower production for the next year.
