Clematis 'Marie Boisselot'
early large flowered clematis (group 2) (syn. Clematis Mme Le Coultre)

- Position: full sun or partial shade
- Soil: fertile, well-drained soil
- Rate of growth: fast-growing
- Flowering period: June to September

Satiny, pure white flowers with overlapping petals and golden yellow centres from June to September. A reliable variety raised in the late nineteenth century, this is probably the most widely grown white-flowered clematis. To appreciate the beautiful white flowers close-up, it is best trained horizontally through a low-growing shrub in full sun or partial shade. - Garden care: Remove dead and damaged stems before growth begins in early spring, cutting all remaining stems back to where strong buds are visible. Apply a slow-release balanced fertiliser and a mulch of of well-rotted garden compost around the base of the plant in early spring.
- Humans: Skin irritant; Pets: Harmful if eaten
