For those who wish to justify the crossbreeding of clematis, Clematis 'Summer Snow' is the perfect choice. This vigorous hybrid is the result of a marriage between C. fargesii and C. vitalba, combining the best qualities of each while eliminating their respective weaknesses. The slender and graceful deciduous climber boasts fresh light green foliage and produces stunning star-shaped flowers in pairs or trios, with creamy-white petals and a fragrant center. At a height of 6-7 meters, it maintains a sense of lightness, making it a desirable addition to any garden. As a Group C or III clematis, it is easy to care for and can be trimmed back in the late autumn or early spring to encourage new growth.
