clematis (group 1) (syn. Clematis montana Starlet White Perfume ('HYFLET')
'Starlet White Perfume' delights with fragrant, semi-double white flowers in mid to late spring. Vigorous and quick to cover arbours, tall trees, or walls, this early flowering clematis shines with its snow-white floral display, making it also perfect for climbing fences or pergolas.
How to care for Clematis Starlet White Perfume ('HYFLET') (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.
Clematis need their roots to be kept cool and moist, so plant the base of these clematis in light shade or provide shading with other plants or a dressing of pebbles. No routine pruning is necessary. If the spread of the plant needs to be restricted prune immediately after flowering, cutting back overlong shoots to healthy buds. Apply a slow-release balanced fertiliser and a mulch of well-rotted garden compost around the base of the plant in early spring.
