clematis 'Etoile Violette'

Another great large-flowered hybrid clematis for Calgary.  Care is the same as for clematis jackmanii.

I have this planted with 'Jackmanii' and a 'Ville de Lyon' clematis, and hope the flowers will intermingle when the plants get bigger in a few years.

spec's: flower size 12 cm; height 3-4 m; not drought tolerant.
