H. Clematis `Durandii'
Clematis x durandii (KLEM-uh-tis)
4-8' h | Perennial, zones 5-9
Clematis experts sing
the praises of this
heirloom clematis. Recommended
unfailingly as a superb non-climbing,
hardy, healthy, strong-stemmed,
long-blooming variety, it's also so
easy to grow! Flaring indigo blue
to deep lavender blue petals have
a gentle twist to them, and after
the bloom time of early summer
to fall the silky shiny pompons of
seed heads add to its beauty. Drape
over shrubs or supports or allow
to scramble over the ground for
the most beautiful groundcover
ever! Prune to ground level in early
spring.

I. Clematis `Montana Freda'
C. montana var rubens
10-15' h | Perennial, zones 6-9
A multiple award winner with
cascades of dogwood-like 3"
blossoms in late spring to early
summer. The nodding buds soon
open to the most saturated pink
in the montana family, and as the
flowers age, they soften and light-
en in color for a rich tapestry of
color and light sweet scent. `Freda'
is unique in that although it is
vigorous it does not require estate
like grounds to ramble in, but
has a neat, compact habit. Do not
bury the stems, but do fertilize
and water regularly, and keep the
roots cool with mulch. Prune after
flowering.

K. Clematis `Roguchi'
C. hyb
4-6' h | Perennial, zones 4-8
A new vigorous hybrid from
Japan with inky blue buds
opening to dangling bell-shaped
flowers in summer, transitioning
to incredibly showy glossy tufted
seedheads for the rest of the
season. The spectacular navy
blue color looks great paired with
yellow-green or creamy varie-
gated foliage. Lovely weaving
through sturdy perennials or
small shrubs. Prune early spring
as needed to shape.

C. texensis
6-8' h | Perennial, zones 6-9
Starry small blooms (2.5" long) in
rich deep pink with rose mar-
gins face upward, displaying the
maroon and cream stamens. A
midsummer to fall bloomer that
remains decorative in later fall
as the seedheads, composed of
silky filaments, shine in the sun.
Produces more and more blooms
each year, flowering on the new
growth; prune earliest spring to 1'.
