Clematis Étoile Rose

clematis (group 3) (syn. Clematis texensis Etoile Rose)

With its charming display of delightful semi-nodding bell-shaped flowers, 'Etoile Rose' is a captivating deciduous climber, gracefully growing to around 3m in height. From midsummer to early autumn, these blooms enchant with their rich deep pink hue, blending into delicate mauve-pink margins and elegantly recurved tips. Creating a picturesque spectacle as it cascades over archways and through trellises, this cultivar provides simple and elegant blooms throughout the summer and early autumn months.

How to care for Clematis Etoile Rose:

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.

Clematis need their roots to be kept cool and moist, so plant the base of these climbers in light shade or provide shading with other plants or a dressing of pebbles. 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.
