Plamének - Clematis montana 'Wilsonii' (voňavé květy)

Clematis montana 'Wilsonii' (also known as Clematis montana var. wilsonii) is a vigorous, deciduous climber, one of the most fragrant varieties in the Montana group. It is prized for its abundant star-shaped creamy white flowers with a strong and pleasant chocolate scent (or hot chocolate), which fills the air in late spring.

The plant grows quickly, reaching 6-10 m in height (or even more under optimal conditions), with glossy dark green trifoliate leaves. Flowers appear in May-June (a bit later than other montana varieties), are large (6-8 cm), with creamy-green stamens, covering the plant in an impressive display of white stars.

Main features:

• Size: large, vigorous (6-10 m length)
• Leaf type: trifoliate, glossy dark green
• Flower type: creamy white stars, with creamy-green stamens
• Scent: intense chocolate (highly appreciated)
• Flowering period: May – June (late for the montana group)
• Pruning group: 1

Simple and practical care:

• Light: full sun or partial shade (top in sun, base in shade – classic for Clematis)
• Temperature: very frost hardy (down to -20°C or lower)
• Watering: moderate – moist but well-drained soil
• Soil: rich in organic matter, well-drained, neutral to alkaline
• Support: pergola, fence, wall, tree, or sturdy trellis
• Pruning: immediately after flowering (remove dead shoots or control size); do not prune in spring!

An excellent choice for quickly covering pergolas, fences, walls, or trees – it offers a fragrant white cloud in late spring and beautiful green foliage in summer. Vigorous, easy to grow, and extremely fragrant, it is a gem for large or medium gardens!
