Product information

Are you searching for a reliable climber that offers a spectacular late-season floral display in your UK garden? Look no further than Clematis ‘Comtesse de Bouchaud’, a deciduous variety renowned for its ability to produce masses of large, rosy-pink flowers providing strong summer interest right through the turning of the seasons.

This lovely climber exhibits a bushy, scrambling habit, making it an excellent choice for training up structures like fences, trellises, or arches, and it is also well-suited for integrating into cottage gardens or mixed borders where it can scramble through existing shrubs. Throughout July, August, and September, this plant rewards you with beautiful blooms in shades of pink and mauve, and its summer flowers are known to attract bees and other pollinators to your outdoor space.

For the best performance in our climate, ensure this variety is planted in moist, free-draining, nutrient-rich soil, and remember the essential tip for clematis care: it thrives best when positioned in full sun or light dappled shade, provided its roots are kept cool and shaded, perhaps by planting low-growing perennials around the base, ensuring you have a vibrant feature for years to come.
