Clematis Blue Light

Clematis Blue Light, Clematis 'Blue Light®', is an exceptional Clematis that boasts fully double 5 6 flowers of violet blue. Blue Light is an exceptionally free flowering variety and a nice compact grower. Perfect size for an impressive container planting! Enjoy the blooms in late spring through early summer and then again from late summer until Fall! Clematis 'Blue Light®', needs a supporting structure to grow properly but will also grow over large shrubs, over walls, cover stumps, and make perfect cover ups for unsightly service areas. Clematis is easy to grow in a rich, porous, alkaline soil with plenty of room for the roots to spread. Best performance is when the tops are in full sunlight and the roots are shaded, so apply a generous mulch or a shallow rooted ground cover near the base of the vine. Very reliable performers once established they take a season or two to get going. Groom this plant after first flowering by cutting back the top one third to one half of some stems.
