Clematis 'Blue Angel'
clematis (group 3) ( syn. Clematis viticella Blekitny Aniol or Blue Angel )
Throughout the summer and well into autumn, this handsome and reliable group 3 clematis produces a profusion of blooms. Each one has somewhat crinkled, soft blue flowers, which surround a boss of yellow stamens that draw in the pollinators, while putting on a stunning and prolonged display.
How to care for Clematis Blekitny Aniol:
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.
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 and a mulch of well-rotted garden compost around the plant, avoiding the immediate crown.
