Deciduous broadleaf Summer blooms |
Innocent Glance is something you experience before you fall in love. And looking at this clematis variety one does not need to look twice to fall head over feet. Its large, 14-15 cm wide flowers are pinkish white, semi- or fully double in late spring, and single and richer pink when it blooms for the second time in late summer. The plant prefers full sun but avoid overheating - keep its roots cool by adequate moisture and provide some shade above them i.e. grow a plant there. It was bread in Poland by Szczepan Marczyński and introduced in 2014.
It belongs to Group 2 clematis: in early spring remove dead and damaged stems before growth begins, trimming all remaining stems to where strong buds are visible. These buds provide a framework of second-year shoots that flower in late spring and early summer. We suggest pruning the plant after the spring flowering has finished by about a third or even half its size. It will re-emerge and flower again and quite reliably from August until October.
Clematis likes deep, fertile, moist but well-drained soil that remains cool. You can grow a plant below clematis that will provide shade for its roots. Add garden compost in late winter and mulch it well. Fully hardy to min. -34°C (USDA zone 4).
