The compact climber, Raymond Evison Clematis 'Bridgewater', boasts large, soft pink blooms adorned with creamy white highlights and a bold central star. These saucer-like flowers, measuring up to 15cm (6in) across, create a striking display during mid-summer and a second flush in September. It thrives in full sun to partial shade but prefers cool roots, making it ideal for trellises, fences, or large containers. To attract pollinators and add vertical interest and seasonal charm to small garden spaces, consider mulching or planting low-growing companions at its base. Clematis plants can be either deciduous or evergreen shrubs, herbaceous perennials, or climbers that use twining leaf stalks. Many varieties also produce striking flowers, while some feature fluffy seedheads in autumn. To ensure the happiness of this plant, it is best to plant it in a location where its roots will remain cool and moist, ideally with some shade provided by lower-growing species. This plant prefers full sun and a well-drained soil. Height: This plant is usually between 75-90cm tall when it arrives, but can reach 1.2m in height. Sold in 3L deep rose pots with a 90cm cane.
