Clematis Prince William ('Zo08171') (PBR)
clematis (group 3) (syn. Clematis texensis Prince William)
Richly coloured blooms and lush green foliage make this clematis a striking choice for walls, fences, or trellis displays. The flowers open from deep red buds into tulip-shaped blooms, with maroon outer petals and violet interiors that contrast beautifully with bright yellow stamens. Flowering from mid-summer to early autumn, it provides long-lasting colour and strong garden impact.
This deciduous climber forms a dense cover of fresh green leaves, and thrives best in fertile, well-drained soil with its roots kept cool and shaded. Clematis ‘Prince William’ enjoys a position in partial sun or dappled light, where its elegant blooms will show to full effect. Light pruning after flowering keeps growth neat and encourages new shoots for the following season.
Perfect for adding height and vibrant colour to cottage-style gardens or mixed borders, this easy-to-grow climber also attracts pollinating insects with its showy, nectar-rich flowers.

How to care for Clematis Prince William ('Zo08171') (PBR):
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.
