Delightfully compact yet strikingly elegant, ‘Ninon’ graces the garden as a deciduous climber, reaching modest and manageable heights from mid summer to early autumn. Its generous paper-white flowers, spanning up to 10cm (4in) across, boast eye-catching reddish-purple anthers at their centres, offering a offering a mesmerising contrast. Distinguishing itself by its ability to flourish in containers while maintaining a smaller profile compared to its counterparts, this marvellous ivory wonder is an ideal choice for smaller spaces and container gardening enthusiasts.
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.
