Clematis Tsukiko ('Evipo110') (PBR) (Garland Series)
clematis (group 3)
Pointed tepals radiate out from the spidery boss of burgundy anthers, forming glowing star-like flowers. Occasionally the tepals will also have a pinkish mauve blush running along their length, which adds to their appeal, and helps tie them in with pink or purple shades. Often flowering well into autumn, it's ideal for extending the season of interest, adding colour long after many other plants have shed their last petal.
How to care for Clematis Tsukiko ('Evipo110') (PBR) (Garland Series):
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.
